Campus • University of New\|^Qmp shire • Durham, N. H.
Durham, the home of the university, is an attractive
village on the Portland division of the Boston and Maine
railroad, sixty-two miles from Boston, fifty-four from
Portland, and five from Dover, a city of 15,000 popula-
tion. Good train service and excellent trunk-line
motor roads make the university easily accessible from
all parts of the state.
Durham, organized in 1732, is one of the historic
towns of New Hampshire. In the early days it was
the home of a prosperous ship building industry.
Situated at the head of tidewater on the Oyster river,
it served as a distributing center for the interior of the
state. During the Revolutionary war it was famous
as the home of Major General John Sullivan. Near his
home, in the village, the state has erected a fitting
monument to his memory.

HISTORICAL SKETCH
TN the year 1856, Benjamin Thompson, a farmer of Durham, New
■^ Hampshire, made a will, by the terms of which he left his entire
estate to the people of New Hampshire, on condition that the state
should establish on his land a college of agriculture. The provisions of
this will were not made public; no one knew of his proposed philanthropy;
the document was laid away in his legal adviser's safe, and it remained
sequestered there for the next 34 years.
At almost the same moment that the idea of an agricultural college
occurred to Benjamin Thompson, a similar conception of a peoples'
college, which, while not neglecting the subjects hitherto deemed es-
sential, should include also in its curriculum courses in agriculture and
the mechanic arts, came to Justin Smith Morrill, who, now after a career
as clerk, merchant, and farmer, was representing a Vermont district in
the national House of Representatives. Mr. Morrill's first bill, offered in
1857, was vetoed by President Buchanan because, in his opinion, its pro-
vision that the federal government should give an allotment of the public
lands to each state which would set up a college for the benefit of agri-
culture and the mechanic arts, would cause friction among the states and
would be unconstitutional. A similar bill, however, offered by him when
the next administration had taken office, passed both houses, and was
signed by President Lincoln, July 2, 1862.
Taking advantage of this national legislation, the state of New Hamp-
shire in 1866 accepted the provisions of the act, took scrip in lieu of
actual land, and selling this for $80,000, set this sum aside for the new
college which it actually established at Hanover in conjunction with the
already existent Dartmouth college in 1868. The president of Dartmouth
was also president of the New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the
Mechanic Arts, as the new institution was named, but there was a dis-
tinct board of trustees. The original program of study provided for a
three-year course, and in 1871 the first class of three members was gradu-
ated. For more than 20 years the college remained at Hanover, an un-
appreciated branch of Dartmouth, with an average enrollment of about
25 students.
When, however, in 1890 Benjamin Thompson died and the terms of
his will became known, the situation changed rapidly. That document
had in the lapse of years acquired several codicils. The original bequest,
indeed, remained unchanged, but the testator had further provided that
if the state of New Hampshire did not accept his gift the land was to go
to Massachusetts for the use of a college to be established there, and if
that state should decline, to Michigan, with no restrictions of any sort.
Michigan had by this time already established an agricultural college
which Thompson was willing to aid. New Hampshire, however, acted
promptly, the legislature making the necessary enactment in 1891. The
47
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
Thompson estate then amounted in land and securities to $300,000, but
this was to lie untouched, at compound interest, for a period of 20 years.
When, at last, in 1912 it first became available, it amounted to approxi-
mately $800,000.
In the meantime the state began its career as a sponsor of higher edu-
cation by erecting a cow barn in Durham, and the enthusiastic senior
class of the college came down from Hanover and had its commencement
exercises before the first cattle were installed. As rapidly as possible after
this, the state erected four other buildings: Thompson hall, Conant hall,
Nesmith hall, and a building for the college shops. All these are still
in use, the first named, little changed, still housing the offices of the
president and other administrative officers, though the others have been
enlarged and remodelled out of all recognition.
The most marked effect of the new environment was an increased en-
rollment, and in 1893, when the new buildings became ready for occu-
pancy, there were 64 students, 10 of whom were women. There had been
but one woman student in all the previous years of the college's existence.
The class of 1893 held its conmiencement in the new Thompson hall, and
from then on all classes were held in Durham. It was soon apparent that
most of the women students and a good many of the men could not ac-
curately be listed in either of the categories which the name of the in-
stitution suggested. When, then, in 1914, constant expansion made some
administrative division essential, the college was divided into the three
divisions: of Agriculture, Engineering, and Arts and Science, and the
hitherto unclassified group was assigned to the Arts and Science division,
which from then on grew much more rapidly than the other two.
Moved by its alumni since 1910 to follow the example set it in other
states, and feeling that by now with its many courses and its more than
1,000 students another name would more nearly describe the fact than
the one originally adopted for the institution, the legislature in 1923 re-
named the college the University of New Hampshire, and reorganized it,
creating within it the three colleges of Agriculture, Technology, and
Liberal Arts, and followed this action in 1925 by providing permanently
for its support in granting it an annual income amounting to one mill for
each dollar of the assessed valuation of all the taxable property in the
state, a sum which this year, 1937, amounts to approximately $548,000.
Today, in addition to the three colleges of the university, there are also
an agricultural experiment station, and an agricultural extension service
which reaches every town in the state; an engineering experiment station,
a summer school, a graduate school, a summer school for zoological study
on the Isles of Shoals, and a permanent forestry camp with buildings and
and four hundred acres of land in the White Mountains.
The university enrollment, though rather rigidly restricted to those in
the upper three fourths of the graduating classes of the high schools of
the state and to some others of high standing from schools outside the
state, now amounts to more than 1,700.

OBJECTIVES OF THE UNIVERSITY
Born in the humanitarian and idealistic fifties, the University of New
Hampshire is dedicated to the education of the state. It conceives its
duty to be of use to all and not to youth alone.
If primarily an institution for resident teaching, it also enters every
shop, every hotel, every manufactory, every farm, every home in the
state, for it understands the field of education to be all-inclusive.
In its classrooms, laboratories, and shops it teaches with little regard
for precedent whatever is desired, but it will also strive with equal zeal
to make it possible for all to find that which is desirable.
It exists not for one group nor for one class, but for all, and its build-
ings and its campus it would make a meeting place and a rallying place
where growth may come to all.
ORGANIZATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF
NEW HAMPSHIRE
The government of the University of New Hampshire is vested in a
board of trustees, thirteen in number, of which the governor of the state,
the commissioner of agriculture, and the president of the university are
members ex oficiis. In addition there are two members elected by the
alumni of the university, one of whom must be a resident of New Hamp-
shire; and eight members appointed by the governor.
Whereas the government of the university is in the hands of the board
of trustees, within the university itself there exists the university senate,
which is a representative body elected by and from the faculty, which
has legislative jurisdiction in all matters of student government and
educational policy. Within the senate is an advisory body known as the
university council, which acts in an advisory capacity to the president,
and serves as an executive committee for the consideration of urgent
matter arising between meetings of the senate.
The university senate and council are the result of an attempt to de-
mocratize the government of the institution. In recent years the increase
in the size of the faculty has tended to make faculty meetings unwieldy.
Because of this fact, the idea of a university senate which would allow full
representation by means of a smaller group was adopted. At present
the senate is composed of the president of the university, the deans of the
several colleges, various other administrative officers, and representatives
from each department of instruction within the different colleges. Each
department has approximately one representative for each three mem-
bers. These departmental representatives are chosen by ballot within
49
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
the department, and all faculty members of the rank of instructor or
higher are eligible for election. The democratic ideal represented by the
senate is best illustrated by the fact that all eligible members of the
faculty must sooner or later represent their respective departments in the
senate, since no person is eligible for reelection until all eligible faculty
members of his department have served.
The university council is made up of the president of the university,
the various administrative officers of the university and certain other
officers and executives whose presence is felt necessary for the under-
standing of the matters brought before it. In addition the representa-
tives of each college in the senate elect two of their members to serve on
the council. The Agricultural Experiment station and Extension serv-
ice are represented in the senate and council in the person of their
director.
That part of the university devoted to resident teaching is composed
of three colleges: the College of Agriculture; the College of Technology;
and the College of Liberal Arts. Each of these has a dean as the presid-
ing officer, and a faculty which conducts resident teaching work. The
college faculties legislate in such matters as are referred to them by the
university senate; administer the educational and internal life of their
respective colleges within the limits prescribed by the president; and
make recommendations to the university senate through the president.
Within the colleges are contained the instructional units of the uni-
versity such as the department of English, the department of mathe-
matics, and the department of botany. These departments usually
have at their heads members of the faculty who have full professorial
rank. Under them come other members of equal or lower rank, down to
and including the rank of graduate assistant. Coordinate with the
college faculties are the Agricultural Experiment station and the Exten-
sion service staffs.
The New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment station, a branch of the
university, was established by the state, August 4, 1887, under an act of
congress of March 2 of that year. This and subsequent acts appropri-
ated funds for conducting research work on agricultural problems in New
Hampshire and throughout the nation.
The investigations conducted by the Experiment station vary ac-
cording to their nature, some lasting through one season only and some
covering a period of years. The projects of the station now include
ninety-five fundamental investigations to determine the underlying
principles of agricultural science and others of more practical application.
Appropriations from the state also enable the Experiment station to
conduct a limited amount of state service work on agricultural problems.
Advantage of the opportunities offered by the Experiment station has
been taken by the state in connection with the tests of seeds, fertilizers,
and feeding stuffs; and samples of these collected by the state depart-
ment of agriculture are tested at the station laboratories each year, in
accordance with legislative enactments.
Information relating to agricultural practices is supplied by the various
50
ORGANIZATION
departments and entails a large volume of correspondence in answer to
individual inquiries. Samples of soil are tested; plants and insects are
identified; blood samples from hens are tested, and post mortem examina-
tions of animals made.
The library of the Experiment station, which is open daily to students
and visitors, contains complete files of all bulletins issued by the experi-
ment stations in other states, all United States department of agriculture
bulletins, and many other reports, bulletins, and records as well as books
of agricultural value.
Publications of the station comprise 302 bulletins of the regular series
and 54 circulars, 70 technical bulletins, 64 scientific contributions and
4 school bulletins. The publications cover a wide range of subjects and
contain the information gathered by the experts of the station while
working on the various projects. The bulletins are issued at regular
intervals, and notices of publications are sent to all residents of New
Hampshire requesting them.
What the university classes are to its students the Extension service is,
only to a lesser degree, to the thousands who are beyond the reach of the
classroom. Through it the teachings of the university and the findings
of the Experiment station and the United States department of agricul-
ture are now being carried to farms and homes throughout the state by a
regularly established force of field workers. There are now ten agri-
cultural agents in the ten counties, ten home demonstration agents, and
ten boys' and girls' club agents, five assistant agents, and two agents-at-
large. Farm management, dairying, forestry, soils and crops, poultry,
horticulture, marketing, engineering, nutrition, clothing and home
management demonstrations are also conducted, with specialists in
charge.
The Extension service works largely through the New Hampshire
Farm Bureau, and has a staff of 58 members. Its publications comprise
182 press bulletins, 208 circulars, and 52 bulletins. Notices of new bul-
letins are sent to a mailing list, which is maintained in cooperation with
the Experiment station. Bulletins are sent free to all who request them.
Reading courses in fifteen subjects in agriculture and home economics,
prepared by members of the resident college staff, are offered during the
winter months.
In addition to the Agricultural Experiment station and Extension serv-
ice, the university also includes an Engineering Experiment station
which provides engineering and research facilities to all industries of the
state. Through it are made available to the manufacturers, for the
solution of their technical problems, the complete facilities of the College
of Technology, including personnel, laboratories, and equipment. While
not directly connected with the instructional departments, it provides
training for selected graduate and undergraduate students.

FACILITIES FOR INSTRUCTION
BUILDINGS FOR ADMINISTRATION AND INSTRUCTION
Thompson Hall, the general administration building, was built in
1893 and is named for Benjamin Thompson of Durham, the greatest
individual benefactor of the college and university. It contains the
office of the president and the offices of other general administrative
officers, and also affords classroom and laboratory facilities for work
in physical education for women, zoology', entomology, and home
economics.
CoNANT Hall, also built in 1893, is named for John Conant of Jaffrey,
an early and generous friend of the college. This building, originally
constructed to house scientific departments, gradually became during
the passage of years the headquarters of the department of chemistry.
It was in this building that Professor Charles James accomplished his re-
searches in the rare earths and minerals. Upon the completion of
Charles James hall in 1929, this building was largely given over to civil
engineering and geology.
Nesmith Hall, another one of the four original buildings erected in
Durham in 1893, is named for Judge George W. Nesmith of Franklin,
who was active as president of the board of trustees from 1877 to 1890.
This small building was enlarged and renovated in 1933 and now houses
the departments of botany and agricultural economics.
Shops, originally constructed in 1893 and enlarged during and im-
mediately after the World war, provide facilities for the department
charged with the maintenance of the buildings and grounds. This build-
ing also houses the laboratories for instruction in machine shop, wood
shop, and forge shop, and the automotive laboratory.
Cold Storage Plant. — In another part of the Shops building there is a
cold storage plant used by the department of horticulture for the fruit
from the university orchards, and as a laboratory for practical instruc-
tion and research in the handling and storage of horticultural products.
Morrill Hall, built in 1902, is named for Senator Justin Morrill of
Vermont, sponsor of the Land Grant act. This building serves as head-
quarters of the College of Agriculture, and contains also the office of the
director of experiment station and the extension service. In this build-
ing are the laboratories and classrooms of the departments of agronomy,
animal husbandry, horticulture, poultry husbandry, forestry, and offices
for agricultural extension and station staff members.
Hamilton Smith Library was erected in 1907 by means of a union of
funds left by Hamilton Smith, of Durham, for the erection of a town
53
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
library building and funds from the Carnegie corporation and the State
of New Hampshire. In the fall of 1937, two wings, each 42 feet by 76
feet and one story high, were erected on either side of the original struc-
ture, thereby increasing the reading room space from 4,300 to 8,800
square feet and making possible other improvements. The library
serves not only the faculty and students of the university but also the
residents of the town of Durham, being one of two such libraries in the
United States so constituted. Because it is the library of the state
university, it serves as far as possible the people of the state of New
Hampshire.
(For further information on the library see page 59.)
Dairy Building, constructed in 1910, is arranged and equipped for
purposes of dairy instruction. It contains equipment usually found in
an up-to-date dairy and affords splendid opportunities for the study
of all phases of the dairy industry.
DeMeritt Hall, provided in 1914, is named for Albert DeMeritt of
Durham, a long-time friend and staunch supporter of the college. It
serves as the headquarters of the College of Technology and affords
lecture, recitation, laboratory, and office rooms for the departments of
mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, physics, and architecture.
MuRKLAND Hall, built in 1927, is named for Charles Sumner Murk-
land, president of New Hampshire from 1893 to 1903. It provides
classroom and office facilities for the majority of the departments of
the College of Liberal Arts. It houses the departments of economics
and accounting, English, languages, mathematics, sociology, philoso-
phy and psychology, history, and political science.
Charles James Hall, dedicated in 1929, bears the name of Charles
James, professor of chemistry at New Hampshire from 1906 to 1928.
This structure houses the department of agricultural and biological
chemistry and the department of chemistry. It provides lecture and
recitation rooms and laboratories for instruction and research in both of
these departments.
Pettee Hall is a new three story building, which is being constructed
to replace the agricultural engineering laboratory destroyed by fire in
July, 1937. It is named in honor of Dean Emeritus Charles H. Pettee.
The building, which will be ready for occupancy in September, 1938,
will house the departments of agricultural engineering, home economics,
and military science.
Textile and Craft Cottage.— The Textile and Craft cottage is a
small house arranged to afford opportunity to those wishing to develop
leisure time activities by carrying on simple hand craft projects. The
cottage is equipped with looms, rug frames, and tools and supplies for
several types of work.
Ballard Hall, originally constructed in 1905 and acquired by pur-
chase in 1914, affords office and classroom facilities for the depart-

ments of education and music, accommodations for Christian Work,
Inc., and offices for student organizations.
The Power Plant, erected in 1927, is equipped for heating the build-
ings of the institution and it is also used for experimental purposes by the
students in mechanical engineering.
The Greenhouses, erected in 1928, provide facilities for botanical
and horticultural research and instruction.
The Poultry Plant, consisting of several up-to-date houses and im-
proved range facilities for chickens and turkeys, is operated for instruc-
tional and research purposes. Experiments are constantly in progress
in nutrition, breeding, brooding, management, and diseases.
A special poultry pathology laboratory, maintained for diagnosis and
research in poultry diseases, is available for student instructional pur-
poses.
The poultry flock consists of Barred Plymouth Rocks, Single Comb
White Leghorns and New Hampshires; also, representative units of
Bronze, White Holland, and Bourbon Red turkeys, White Pekin ducks,
and Toulouse geese.
&*
The Dairy Barn, completed in the spring of 1932, provides accom-
modations for some 120 dairy animals. This unit consists of the follow-
ing: main barn for 60 cows; wing for bulls, calves, and young stock;
isolation barn; dry cow and young stock barn for 50 head; combine milk
room; milk house, with equipment for cooling, bottling and storing milk,
and for washing and sterilizing bottles and equipment.
The university dairy herd is made up of representatives of the Ayr-
shire, Guernsey, Holstein and Jersey breeds.
The Stock Barn is thoroughly equipped with modern appliances, and
houses an excellent herd of purebred Shorthorns, several Herefords,
small flocks of purebred Shropshire and Dorset sheep, and a well-bred
Percheron stallion.
The Piggery accommodates a herd of Chester White hogs.
RESIDENTIAL HALLS
President's House, a substantial, attractive building was erected
in 1904 to provide a residence for the president and his family.
Commons was erected in 1919, enlarged in 1925 and again in 1937.
It contains the freshman dining hall, a faculty dining room, a cafeteria, a
trophy and lounge room, rooms for meetings of student organizations,
and provides on the third floor dormitory facilities for a limited number
of undergraduate men.
Fairchild Hall, erected in 1916, honors Edward Thomson Fairchild,
president of New Hampshire from 1912 to 1917. It is a brick structure
of colonial design and furnishes accommodations for 150 undergraduate
men.
55
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
East and West Halls were erected by the United States government
in 1918, in order to furnish housing facilities for troops in training at the
college during the World War. These buildings have since been parti-
tioned into moderate-sized rooms and provide desirable accommodations
and comfortable quarters at low cost for 230 men.
Smith Hall was originally constructed in 1908 with funds made pos-
sible by the generosity of Mrs. Shirley Onderdonk of Durham, who made
this provision as a memorial to her mother, Mrs. Alice Hamilton Smith.
The original building and an annex constructed in 1918 furnish desirable
rooming facilities for 68 women students.
CoNGREVE Hall was built in 1920 with funds made available through
the will of Mrs. Alice Hamilton Smith of Durham, and bears the name
of a family intimately connected with Mrs. Smith's ancestry. The
original building and a wing erected during the summer of 1922 accom-
modate 100 undergraduate women.
Hetzel Hall, built in 1925, is named for Ralph D. Hetzel, president
of New Hampshire from 1917 to 1927. It is the newest men's dormitory
on the campus and accommodates 156 undergraduate men.
Scott H.\ll, completed in 1932, is named for Clarence Watkins Scott,
Professor of History at New Hampshire from 1879 to 1930. This
building furnishes comfortable accommodations for 120 undergraduate
women.
Elizabeth DeMeritt House, erected in 1931, named for Mrs.
Elizabeth P. DeMeritt, Dean of Women from 1919-1931, maintained
for practice in home management, is a modified Cape Cod cottage, thor-
oughly equipped with modern household devices and furnished to illus-
trate various types of treatment in keeping with style. It will house
eight resident students and two instructors.
Charles Harvey Hood House, an infirmary erected in 1932, is the
gift of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Harvey Hood of Boston. It was erected
and will be maintained by funds presented to the trustees in 1930, the
fiftieth anniversary of Mr. Hood's graduation from the University of
New Hampshire. Hood house, designed and furnished in a cheery,
homelike style, is unusually well equipped to care for sick and ailing
students. It will accommodate normally thirty patients in both wards
and private rooms. The office of the university physician and quarters
for three trained nurses are also located in Hood house.
ATHLETIC FACILITIES
Lewis Fields, outdoor recreational center, dedicated October 10,
1936, in honor of Dr. Edward Morgan Lewis, president of the university
from 1927 to 1936, include six fields for football, soccer, and lacrosse, and
four baseball diamonds for alternate use with some of the aforementioned,
a first-class cinder track with a 220-yard straightaway and pits and run-
56
ATHLETIC FACILITIES
ways for jumping and vaulting, fourteen composition and six clay tennis
courts, concrete bleachers seating 1,750 spectators at baseball games
and concrete stands seating 5,000 spectators at football and track and
field contests. The entire equipment was built in cooperation with
Federal work-relief agencies. Materials used in the construction of
the main field stands were provided by alumni of the university as the
first project of the Alumni fund,
Brackett Field. — The varsity baseball field on Lewis Fields is
known as Brackett field, in honor of William H. L. Brackett, '14,
prominent student leader of his college generation who died from wounds
received during the World war.
Memorial Field. — At the annual meeting of the New Hampshire
alumni association held in Durham in June, 1919, it was voted that the
association should erect an appropriate memorial for the eighteen New
Hampshire college men who lost their lives in the World war. After
careful consideration of all suggestions for a memorial gift, it was voted
to raise $25,000 for the construction of a new athletic field to be known as
Memorial Field. On March 31, 1921, the campaign "went over the
top," and on June 10, 1922 Memorial Field was dedicated and officially
turned over to the college. It was the first gift of major importance
from the alumni to the university and one of which they were justly
proud.
Memorial Field was used by the university as a football field, for track
meets, lacrosse games, and for men's physical education classes until
the spring of 1937, when it was officially turned over to the women
students. The men's activities are now scheduled for Lewis Fields.
Armory and Gymnasium, erected in 1906, contains a large drill hall
and gymnasium and provides space for the offices of the departments
of physical education and athletics and military science and tactics.
In the basement facilities are provided for showers and lockers and
for the storage of military and athletic equipment. Upon completion
of Pettee hall and the University Field house, this building will be used
as a women's gymnasium.
University Field House, under construction adjoining the new
Lewis Fields stadium, will house the department of physical education
and athletics for men, thereby freeing the present gymnasium for use by
the women's department of physical education which at present is
housed on the fourth floor of Thompson hall. The Field house will
provide space for an indoor baseball diamond, jumping pits, an indoor
track, and accommodations for basketball and other sports. Offices
for members of the department staffs, team managers' quarters, shower,
locker and storage facilities will be provided in a wing built on a lower
level. Convocation will occasionally be held in the Field house. Other
large audiences will also be accommodated in the new structure as occa-
sion demands.
57
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
OTHER FACILITIES
Lands. — The lands of the university total about 1,305 acres. Of this
area about 154 acres are devoted to the campus proper and athletic
fields; about 257 acres are used for hay, tillage, orchards, and gardens;
about 558 acres are forest, wood and brush land; about 300 acres are in
pasture; and about 18 acres in ponds.
The Horticultural farm comprises about 20 acres of fruit trees, two to
three acres of small fruits, chiefly strawberries, grapes, and raspberries,
and several acres of vegetables and garden crop. In addition, there is
maintained at the farm a display collection of some 450 varieties of
bearded iris.
The orchard site is one of the finest in southern New Hampshire, and
the soil, which is a Gloucester stony, sandy loam, has made some of the
plots exceedingly productive. Various long-time experiments are under-
way in these orchards, giving the student opportunity to study and
observe trees under various cultural treatments. Nearly all of the
important standard varieties of fruit are represented in the collection
and in addition a number of the more promising new sorts. In the
gardens an excellent collection of vegetable strains and varieties is grown
annually. An apiary of 25 hives provides bees for pollination studies
and class work.
The farm is well equipped with tractors, sprayers, power cultivator for
the garden, and other modern implements. The packing plant which
is maintained in connection with it is equipped with an excellent grader
and other apparatus for the handling and packing of fruit. The cold
storage plant has been described under the buildings for administration
and instruction.
Marine Zoological Laboratory.— In 1927 the university acquired
the use of land on Appledore island, Isles of Shoals, including an excellent
set of buildings for the establishment of a summer course in biology. From
this experiment there has been developed the Marine Zoological laboratory
of the University of New Hampshire. It is at the present time a com-
plete unit within itself which offers adequate instruction in various
phases of marine biology as well as courses in histology, embryology,
comparative anatomy, and biology-education methods courses. The
unit provides adequate housing and recreational facilities, and is par-
ticularly adapted for the work of senior or first-year graduate students
interested either in teaching, experimental work in biology, or in prepara-
tion for medical school.
The Isles of Shoals is a group of small islands nine miles off shore from
Portsmouth in an area famous for its abundance of marine life. Much
of the work, therefore, is conducted out of doors.
The laboratory plant itself provides ample classroom and laboratory
space. There are supplies for all types of ecological and experimental
work, including glassware, chemicals, stains, lanterns for projecting
slides, and a complete set of microscopes and microscopic equipment for
all students. A library sufficient for all the work offered is transported
58
OTHER FACILITIES
from the university each summer to the Shoals. Boats for dredging and
for ecological study are available, together with the necessary apparatus.
Living facilities are provided by dormitories, a faculty house, and a mess
hall.
College Woodo. — The college owns a tract of 50 acres of old-
gro-vvth timber and 500 acres of second growth. A nursery for the
growing of seedling forest trees has been established. The College
woods are also used as a laboratory for forestry students.
Forestry Summer Camp. — The forestry summer camp is at Passa-
conaway, New Hampshire. Here the university has a tract of 400 acres
of timberland, on which are examples of most of the Northern forest
types. The property is surrounded by the White Mountain National
forest, which makes available to the school more than half a million acres
of the finest woodlands in the East. Students are housed in an attractive
wooden building, formerly a summer hotel, with 20 sleeping rooms, a
large dining room, and a comfortable lounge, suitable for lectures, study,
and reading. Drafting rooms, laboratory and darkroom facilities are
being added.
There is a game management area close to the camp, and the Bartlett
Experimental forest is only a few miles away. In addition various
forest operations are being carried on near enough to serve for purposes
of instruction.
Recreational activities include swimming, fishing, tennir, and moun-
tain climbing. There are 50 mountain peaks within a 10-mile radius
of the camp, on most of which there are trails. Bartlett, Conway and
North Conway are easily accessible.
Museum Collection. — Though the university has no museum, there
are several collections housed in various buildings. At present, speci-
mens are being collected to illustrate the zoology of New Hampshire,
and New Hampshire collectors and naturalists are invited to make the
university their permanent depository.
The Pottery. — The pottery is maintained and operated by the
League of New Hampshire Arts and Crafts and was organized to teach
craftsmen to make pottery which they could sell in the league shops
throughout the state. As the principal clay deposits of New Hampshire
are in this section of the state, a site was sought in Durham and the
university offered to assist. It is housed in one of the laboratory rooms
in James hall. The course is open "to sophomore, junior, and senior
students of the university who may qualify by taking out league mem-
bership for a nominal fee. Students may sell the products of their
work in the league shops.
The Hamilton Smith Library. — The library at the University of
New Hampshire, known as the Hamilton Smith library, was formed
through an agreement reached in 1907 with the town of Durham, and
includes the collections of the university and those of the former Durham
Public library, the Durham Library association, and the New Hamp-
59
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
shire Agricultural Experiment station. The Hamilton Smith library
building, erected in 1907, is described on page 53.
The library collection now consists of 95,000 bound volumes, and
about 625 periodicals are received currently. The library is an official
depository for United States government publications and, as such,
receives most publications so available. While the major part of the
book collection is housed in the main library building, certain depart-
mental collections have been established in other buildings on the campus,
including the Experiment Station library in Morrill hall, the Chemistry
library in James hall, and the DeMerritt hall library, which contains
the principal material relating to the various branches of engineering,
architecture, and physics. Various other smaller collections are housed
in departmental offices, and are to be found listed in the Library Hand-
hook. Noteworthy special collections in the main library include the New
Hampshire collection of some 2,000 volumes, the Amoskeag collection,
consisting largely of the labor and production records of the old Amos-
keag Manufacturing company, and the Mary P. Thompson collection.
Recently, by the establishment of small nucleus book collections in
women's dormitories, a beginning has been made looking towards what
is hoped will develop into well-equipped dormitory libraries.
The library serves not only faculty and students, but also the towns-
people of Durham. In addition, as much service as possible is given to
the people of the state through cooperation with other libraries. Incom-
ing freshmen are instructed in the use of the library by the staff in con-
junction with the faculty of the department of English.
Aside from a small proportion of the collections restricted to use in
the library building, all books may be drawn for one or two weeks,
with the privilege of renewal, except on new popular works. Fines on
overdue books are charged at the rate of two cents a day. In the
reserved book room books may be withdrawn for overnight only,
subject to a fine of ten cents an hour for late return.
The library is open during the college session from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
on week days, and from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Sundays.
In the summer session and in vacations the hours are somewhat shorter.
A complete statement of library rules is given in the Library Handbook,
which is distributed free of charge. The library also publishes a free
monthly leaflet, the Library Lantern, giving annotations and evaluations
of new books.

Reserve Officers Training Corps. — Recognizing in military train-
ing values making for the physical, mental and moral development of
the individual and a future safeguard for the nation, the university
maintains two units cf the Reserve Officers Training corps. This corps
comprising units at 125 prominent educational institutions throughout
the country, organized by Act of Congress in 1862 in the midst of the
Civil War, reorganized in 1916 and again in 1920 as a result of the ex-
perience of the World War, provides systematic military training for
school and college students and trains specially selected students to
become officers of the Reserve corps of the army.
While the War department supervises the training, details officers and
non-commissioned officers of the Regular army as instructors, and loans
the necessary equipment, students undergoing this instruction and who
are members of the R.O.T.C. are in no wise members of the military
forces of the government. They remain civilians and, as regards obliga-
tions to serve the government, are in the same category as students not
members of the R.O.T.C: that is, enrollment in the R.O.T.C. involves
no additional obligations as to service.
The cadets wear, while at military instruction, a uniform furnished by
the government. They are put to no expense other than the purchase
of one or two textbooks.* Students (freshmen and sophomores) pursu-
ing the basic course are issued attractive uniforms of good quality; ad-
vanced students (juniors and seniors) purchase their uniforms with an
allowance provided by the government. This uniform is suitable for use
after graduation upon the student's becoming a reserve officer.
Military science is a required course for all male students, not espe-
cially excused, who are members of the freshman and sophomore classes.
Students of the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Agriculture are assigned to
the infantry unit. Students of the College of Technology are assigned
to the coast (heavy and anti-aircraft) artillery unit. At the conclusion
of the first two years, those students who elect, and who are considered
especially qualified, are given the opportunity to continue with the
advanced course, subject to congressional limitations as to numbers.
Students completing four years satisf,actorily are commissioned in the
Officers' Reserve corps of the United States army.
Both the coast artillery and the infantry courses include military
fundamentals. The object of this training is to inculcate habits which
• A deposit of $15 is required of each student having military equipment in his pos-
session, whether registered for military science or not. At the end of the academic
year or upon a student's severing his connection with the university this deposit will
be refunded to him upon the satisfactory return to the university of all military property
loaned except that a reasonable deduction will be made to cover any damage beyond
natural wear and tear or for the loss of any of the equipment.

UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
make for success in civil as well as military pursuits; physical stamina,
good carriage, courtesy, punctuality, neatness in dress and person,
attention to duty, high personal integrity, and loyalty.
In addition, the coast artillery course covers the construction, use and
care of artillery material, heavy guns, coast and anti-aircraft gunnery
devices and mortar transportation. To the engineering student this
course offers, apart from the military training, an excellent opportunity
to observe practical applications of his classroom work and to enlarge
his view of the engineering field.
The infantry course covers the organization, equipment, tactics and
administration of the basic and numerically greatest arm of the service.
This course stresses theoretical and practical knowledge of personnel
problems and emphasizes leadership.
Advanced students (juniors and seniors) who elect and are selected
to continue with the third and fourth years, and who fulfill the required
conditions including attendance at the prescribed summer camp, are
allowed commutation of subsistence, a uniform allowance, travel ex-
penses to and from camp as well as a per diem allowance while attending
camp. The cash value of these for the two years is, at present, about
$200. The student is not bound to remain in college nor is he bound to
any military service during his course or thereafter. He is required,
once having enrolled for the advanced course, to complete it as a pre-
requisite to graduation, and to observe the rules and regulations
governing the corps.
The summer camp, of six weeks' duration, is normally held at the end
of the junior year. Here opportunity is offered to meet students of
other colleges. The courses taken on the campus are elaborated upon
with special attention to the practical side. As the student is furnished
an appropriate uniform for wear during this period, his only expense is
for such personal items as he may wish to make. The Regular army
officers in charge insure proper healthful living conditions, including
wholesome food, as well as proper discipline and a healthy moral tone.
Medical officers guard the student's health and athletics are encouraged.
These camps offer the student scope to enlarge his experience while
occupied in activities, mental and physical, that minister to his devel-
opment.
Bureau of Appointments.— The University bureau of appointments
assists seniors and alumni to secure permanent positions after graduation.
It corresponds with and interviews school superintendents, personnel
managers of industrial concerns, institutional managers, and others who
employ college graduates, calling to their attention those seniors and
alumni who are seeking positions. The bureau also assists in finding
opportunities for men students for employment in and about the village
of Durham.
Vocation Days. — For the benefit of students who are about to
graduate, the university conducts for three days each year, called

62
GENERAL INFORMATION
information about both the technique of job getting and some of the
fields open to the college graduate. In 1938 the visiting speakers dis-
cussed manufacturing, social service, welfare work, retailing and mer-
chandising, banking and credit work, engineering, office and secretarial
work, home economics, agriculture, the federal bureau of investigation,
sales, government aviation, and teaching.
Health Service. — The University Health service includes a uni-
versity infirmary known as Hood house (for a detailed description of
this building see page 56), a university physician, and a staff of registered
nurses. The object of this organization is to protect, improve and
maintain the health of the students. There is individual health guidance
through personal conferences, treatment, and cooperation with family
physicians.
The services of the university physician are confined entirely to illness
that may be cared for by office calls, dormitory visits, and infirmary
confinement.
Injury or illness requiring X-ray examinations, hospital confinement
(other than in Hood house), the services of specialists, operations, am-
bulance service or special prescriptions, are at the expense of the student.
For any illness requiring a special nurse, the student pays for such
service.
Injuries to athletes connected with training or disabilities incurred in
practice for or participation in freshman or intercollegiate athletic con-
tests are attended by the university physician so far as practicable. For
those requiring medical attention other than above, the university may
assume a portion of the expense, but only upon the approval of the
president.
Students, while at Hood house are charged $1.00 a day for its use.
Office calls are made at Hood house between the hours of 8.00 a.m. and
5.00 P.M. A charge of $1.00 will be made for all calls at Hood house
between the hours of 5.00 p.m. and 8.00 A.M. The fee for such calls is
cancelled by the university physician if he finds that the onset of the
illness or injury occurred at such time as to make necessary a call
during this period. When a student, who has been attended by the
Hood house staff, is asked to return for treatment or observation after
hours, no fee will be charged.
Christian Work. — Christian Work Incorporated, is the organization
through which general religious activities on the campus are stimulated.
The advisory board for this undertaking consists of representatives

by voluntary contributions from the above groups together with gifts
each year from parents of the students and other interested friends.
The object of the organization is to facilitate the cooperation of vari-
ous persons and groups of persons interested in striving to develop and

mate of the first year 's expense. Inquiries from men concerning self-support
should be addressed to the bureau of appointments, Durham, N. H.
Student Employment Committee. — In order to insure an equitable
distribution of university part-time employment, a committee of the
faculty is charged with the responsibility of rating students for em-
ployment. The committee accepts no responsibility for the annual
placement of students on jobs. Its only function is to try to see that
only needy students are certified as eligible to hold positions. Ap-
plication blanks, obtainable at the office of the Student Aid committee,
must be filled out and each student rated before he becomes eligible
for a university position. Applications for federal aid work are also

Applications for these scholarships must be returned to the Student
Aid committee not later than July 15.

students. In order to grant scholarships equitably the university re-
quires full information of all applicants relative to the necessity for
scholarship aid. Scholarship application blanks will be provided upon
request to the Student Aid committee.
These scholarships will be forfeited at any time for misconduct. A
student placed on probation thereby forfeits his scholarship during the
semester of probation.

plane geometry are required for entrance except that a candidate for admission to the
General curriculum of the College of Liberal Arts who offers two units in a single foreign
language may substitute for the two units required in mathematics two additional units
in subjects named in groups A, C, D and E above.
t Students entering the College of Technology must offer three units of mathematics
which should include elementary and advanced algebra, plane and solid geometry.

UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
Admission of non-resident candidates will be by selection, and only
records of good grade will be considered; character, leadership, alert-
ness, etc., will also be taken into account. Because of the large number
of New Hampshire students needing financial assistance in the form
of employment, only a very limited number of applications can be con-
sidered which do not give evidence of reasonable financial backing.
Every candidate for admission to the university must, before he can he ad-
mitted, present evidence satisfactory to the university physician that he is in
good health. This evidence may be secured by members of the entering class
through physical examinations given during Freshman week at university
expense. Students who enter with advanced standing, special students, and
freshmen who do not attend Freshman week must assume personally the
expense of physical examinations necessary in securing evidence of satis-
factory health. Such evidence must include a complete medical and surgical
history of each student, and blank forms intended to assist each applicant in
furnishing such a history are provided by the university.
FRESHMAN WEEK
Freshman week was instituted at the University of New Hampshire
in 1924. It is evident from a study of the results of the activities of
this week that it has served as a valuable means of adjusting freshmen
to their new environment, of creating right attitudes towards college
work and of minimizing the usual delays during the first few weeks
of the regular term. By means of so-called "placement tests" the stu-
dents will be sectioned according to their abilities and aptitudes. The
week also affords an opportunity for the students to learn to know
each other, to organize their efforts, to work together, to play together,
and to become acquainted with the campus, the buildings, the faculty
and with the courses of study and the traditions of the university.
Attendance of all freshmen throughout Freshman week, beginning
Tuesday, September 13, and continuing through Saturday, September
17, will be obligatory. Any prospective candidate for the freshman
class who is absent from the exercises beginning on September 13
will seriously imperil his admission to the university.
REQUIREMENTS IN DETAIL
GROUP A. ENGLISH
The requirement in English is that recommended by the National
Conference on Uniform Entrance Requirements in English: *
"1. Habits of correct, clear, and truthful expression. This part of
the requirement calls for a carefully graded course in oral and written
composition, and for instruction in the practical essentials of gram-
mar, a study which should be reviewed in the secondary school. In all
written work constant attention should be paid to spelling, punctua-
tion, and good usage in general as distinguished from current errors.
In all oral work there should be constant insistence upon the elimina-

METHODS OF ADMISSION
tion of such elementary errors as personal speech-defects, foreign
accent, and obscure enunciation."
"2. Ability to read with intelligence and appreciation works of
moderate difficulty; familiarity with a few masterpieces. This part of
the requirement calls for a carefully graded course in literature."
Lists of books should be provided from which a specified number of

GROUP C. SOCIAL SCIENCE AND HISTORY
This group includes history, economics, commercial law, and sociol-
ogy.
Although there are excellent text -books in history, an adequate prep-
aration cannot be obtained by these alone. Some collateral work is
necessary, whatever book is used, and with certain ones a large amount
is necessary. The details of the preparatory work in the social sciences
are stated in "The Program of Studies Recommended for the Public
Schools of New Hampshire," by the State board of education.
1. History of Civilization.
2. Ancient History. — This may include the earliest nations and the
period to 800 a.d., or it may be limited to Grecian history and Roman
history to the fall of the Western Roman empire.
3. Mediaeval and Modern European History.
4. U. S. Constitutional History. — It is assumed that a reasonable
amount of time is to be given to the study of the Constitution of the
United States.
5. Sociology. — The background in sociology should include a thor-
ough familiarity with one of the introductory text-books in this field,
with collateral emphasis on the basic adjustments of individuals, groups,
institutions, races, and classes.
The student should be familiar with the scientific method as applied
to the study of society; social ecology; basic processes; laws of social
interaction, mobility, and control; basic institutions; characteristics of
rural and urban life; and the nature of social problems.
For a more complete description, see the program of studies recom-
mended by the State board of education of New Hampshire.
6. Economics. — The work in this field should consist of the mastery
of a standard text or its equivalent assignments from one or more stand-
ard works. The study should introduce the student to the broad field of
historical and descriptive economics. This should include :
88

the State board of education.)
GROUP D. NATURAL SCIENCE
A notebook, carefully kept, and examined by the teacher, is an essen-
tial part of all laboratory work in science.
1. Biology. — The work in biology should cover the material outlined
in the program of studies recommended for the public schools of New
Hampshire by the State board of education. Either a half or a whole
year's work will be accepted.
2. Chemistry. — Elementary inorganic chemistry should cover (1)
a study of the more common non-metallic and metallic elements and
their most important compounds; (2) an introduction to the general
theoretical principles; (3) calculations based upon chemical equations and
changes of gaseous volumes. A year's work should consist of four or five
exercises per week, at least one of which should be in laboratory work.
3. Physics. — The work in physics should consist of (1) the study of a
standard text for one school year under the guidance of a science teacher.
The minimum time devoted to this phase of the work should be four
periods a week. (2) Performance of such experiments as the science
teacher suggests, under the personal guidance of the teacher. The mini-
mum time for this phase of the work, to include both performance of
experiment and writing of report, should be two periods per week.
4. Zoology. — A study of the fundamental principles of animal struc-
ture and the dissection of type forms. The student should become
familiar with the characteristics of the various phyla of the animal king-
dom. The study should consist of four or five exercises a week, at least
one of which should be laboratory work. Either a half or the whole of
a year's work will be accepted.
5. General Science. — To meet a recent movement in the disposition
of the science work in the high schools, a course in general science which
amounts to at least four exercises a week for one year will be accepted.

89
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
the sciences employed in household economy, and the more common
phenomena of physics and chemistry.
GROUP E. FOREIGN LANGUAGES
1. French. — Work of the first year should include (1) careful drill
in pronunciation, through dictation, conversation, and reading aloud;
(2) drill upon the rudiments of grammar, with some translation of simple
English into idiomatic French; (3) reading of 200 pages of French prose,
if French is not the language of the classroom and a large amount of oral
French is not used by teacher and pupils, or of 100 pages if French is the
language of the classroom and the time saved by a reduced reading stand-
ard is devoted to oral work in French; in both cases the reading should be
divided between some intensive, accurate study of the French prose,
with translation into English to check up on the pupils' understanding
of the passage, and some extensive reading to induce pupils to read
French for the pleasure and satisfaction it affords.
Work of the second year should include (1) the reading of 300 or 400
pages of French prose, the amount to depend, as in the first year, upon
the time devoted to oral work, the reading being again divided into in-
tensive and extensive; (2) dictation, conversation, grammar drill, and
composition, based on topics connected with the classroom and events of
everyday life in France; (3) some practice in translating into French
from English variations or paraphrases of the French texts read, so as to
fix important words and idioms in the memory and to transpose the pas-
sive knowledge gained from reading into an active command of French.
Work of the third year should include (1) the reading of 500 or 600
pages of French, part intensively, part extensively, with emphasis on
books of recognized literary value and on those which describe the his-
tory and civilization of France; (2) continued oral drill (dictation, discus-
sions, etc.); (3) emphasis upon the writing of grammatically correct and
idiomatic French dealing partly with the texts read, partly with the
ordinary experiences of life here and in France.
2. German. — Work of the first year should include (1) careful drill in
pronunciation; (2) drill upon the rudiments of grammar; (3) dictation
and other oral work; (4) the reading of from 100 to 200 pages of prose;
(5) translation of simple English into correct, idiomatic German. Work
of the second year should include (1) the reading of from 200 to 300
pages of prose, part intensively to make the pupils acquire habits of
accuracy, part extensively to encourage them to read for pleasure and
satisfaction; (2) oral drill (dictation, discussions, reading aloud); (3) con-
tinued drill upon the rudiments of grammar, through exercises based
upon the texts read and others dealing with life in Germany; (4) the
study of German history, customs, and institutions through appropriate
reading texts and composition exercises; (5) reading and memorizing of
simple German lyrics.
3 Latin, Elementary — Grammar and the equivalent of four books
of Caesar. Two years' work.
90
METHODS OF ADMISSION
4. Latin, Advanced. — Equivalent of Virgil, six books, and Cicero,
six orations.
GROUP F. VOCATIONAL SUBJECTS
1. Agriculture (Smith-Hughes). — The work in agriculture covers
ten periods a week throughout the school year and includes a study of
and participation in the following, supplemented by at least six months
of supervised, individual project work on the home farm:
a. Major, contributory, and minor agricultural enterprises in the com-
munity, based upon the results of a survey of local farm practice.
h. At least twenty per cent of the total time allotted each year is de-
voted to farm mechanics, comprising the daily jobs confronting
the farmer in keeping his equipment in the best of condition, and
in doing the ordinary repair and construction work which arises
on the farm.
c. Agricultural economics and farm management are considered each
year in relation to each of the three types of enterprises. In ad-
dition, part of the work of the senior year is devoted to a synthesis
and extension of the principles applied in connection with the

Graduate school, by competent members of various departments of
instruction and research. These members constitute the faculty of the
Graduate school.
The general administrative functions of the faculty are delegated to
the dean and the committee on graduate study.
ADMISSION
A student who holds a bachelor's degree, or its equivalent, from an
approved college or university, is eligible for admission to graduate study.
Admission to graduate study does not necessarily imply admission to
candidacy for an advanced degree. Students who are not planning to
become candidates for an advanced degree may be admitted to graduate
study upon the recommendation of the heads of the departments con-
cerned, and with the approval of the dean.
A student may major only in the departments represented in the cata-
log of the Graduate school.

Requirements for Degrees
Each candidate for a degree must complete 144 semester credits and
the courses prescribed in one of the major four-year curricula.
Students graduating from the four-year curriculum in animal hus-
bandry, dairy husbandry, teacher preparation or general agriculture
must present to the dean of the College of Agriculture, at least two
weeks prior to commencement, satisfactory evidence of having had
practical experience in farm work, either through having lived on a farm
for at least two years subsequent to the age of 12, or through having
worked on a farm at least six months subsequent to the age of 16.
Students graduating from the forestry curriculum must have spent at
least three months in practical forest work, in addition to attendance at
an eight weeks' summer camp under supervision of the forestry depart-
ment.
Students graduating from the horticulture curriculum or the poultry
curriculum must have had practical experience on the college farm and
elsewhere to satisfy the heads of the major departments concerned.
Teacher preparation seniors must take one semester of supervised
teaching in some high school in the state designated by the state depart-
ment of education.
Several fields of study in the fine and applied arts within the university
are op>en to students in the College of Agriculture without prerequisites.
The attention of students is directed especially to the offerings in archi-
tecture, English, horticulture, music, physics, and pottery.
Students having any interest and possible time are urged to consult
Mr. George R. Thomas of the department of architecture to learn more
about these courses.
Curricula
The object of the four-year curricula of this college is to give a broad
general education and thorough training in the basic sciences as well as
96
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
to develop specific technical knowledge relating to the various phases of
agriculture. To this end several subjects in the Colleges of Liberal Arts
and Technology have been added to those provided by the College of
Agriculture. The lecture and recitation work of the classroom in agri-
culture is amply supplemented in all cases by practical exercises in the
laboratories and about the farm. Seminars and discussion courses also
are provided for seniors or other advanced students.
Many of the graduates of the four-year curriculum return to the farm
for the purpose of putting into practice the knowledge and training
gained in their college courses, and many of them have become successful
and prosperous citizens of their communities; others, who have no farms
of their own, accept salaried positions as superintendents or foremen on
large dairy, fruit, stock, or poultry farms; still others take positions as
teachers of science and agriculture in our secondary schools, or as as-
sistants in our agricultural colleges, experiment stations or extension
services; and, finally, an increasingly large number continue in special-
ized work, here or elsewhere, toward graduate degrees.
The major curricula from which the agricultural student may make
his selections are as follows:
1. General Agriculture 6. Entomology
2. Agricultural and Biological Chemistry 7. Forestry
3. Animal Husbandry 8. Horticulture
4. Botany and Bacteriology 9. Poultry Husbandry
5. Dairy Husbandry 10. Teacher Preparation
During the freshman and sophomore years, all agricultural students
pursue the same general curriculum of fundamental work. During this
period, a very few choices or alternative courses are indicated. The
purpose of such a scheme is to make possible a deferred decision by the
student who is uncertain of his interests, and therefore cannot decide at
once on a curriculum. However, there are definite advantages that accrue
from making a proper selection of courses even in the freshman year, and
students are urged to consider their aptitudes, discuss their problems
with advisers, and heads of departments, and reach decisions as to their
curriculum preferences during Freshman week.
In other words, these introductory courses are not electives in the
usually accepted sense, to be taken or not at the discretion of the student,
but rather they make possible the rounding-out of the fundamental
work in the interests of perfecting the major curriculum to be finally
completed. The highly technical or semi-professional curricula, such as
agricultural and biological chemistry, entomology, forestry, and teacher
preparation, involve sequences of subject matter for the whole four years,
and so much of it that certain courses even in the freshman year must be
carefully selected and prescribed. Other curricula may be a little less
exacting, but there will always be a decided advantage to the student in
making an early and accurate selection of his major work.
The earlier a student can decide on his curriculum, the surer will the
prescribed work for a degree he completed in the allotted time, and the more
97
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
easily will he find opportunities for choosing electives to suit his personal
desires.
The general descriptions of curricula which follow should be carefully
studied.
General Agriculture. — This curriculum is offered for the student
who wishes to secure a broad, general training in many important
branches of agriculture without specializing unduly in any particular
department. To this end, it is assumed that the student will take during
his four years an average of about two semester courses in at least ten
of the following departments: Agronomy, animal husbandry, agricul-
tural chemistry, agricultural economics, botany, chemistry, dairy hus-
bandry, economics, English, entomology, forestry, horticulture, mathe-
matics, physics, poultry husbandry, zoology. A majority of these
covering work in other colleges is required during the freshman and
sophomore years, but several in the College of Agriculture may be
elected in the freshman or sophomore year. In addition to such of these
courses as have been completed by the end of the sophomore year, ob-
viously other advanced and supplementary courses will be required in
the junior and senior years. However, a considerably greater choice of
subject matter is allowed here than in the more specialized curricula.
Students who expect to engage in farming will find this so-called gen-
eral curriculum with its wide range of fundamental courses a most
profitable one. This curriculum should also prepare for extension work
like that of a county agent, a boys' and girls' club leader, a marketing or
farm management investigator, or a soils and crops specialist. For
those expecting to specialize later in graduate work, the broad foundation
of fundamental subject matter made possible by this curriculum should
provide a most desirable background.
During the freshman and sophomore years the student should com-
plete at least three introductory courses in the first semesters and four in
the second semesters. In the freshman year this might include any of
those listed except forestry 5 and 6, and in the sophomore year the
elective list is increased by agronomy, both semesters, entomology 1,
agricultural engineering 4, agricultural chemistry 2 or 4 and geology (7).
Agricultural and Biological CHEMibTRY. — Students majoring in
this curriculum receive training in the various branches of general chem-
istry and in their application to the growth and development of plants
and animals. The methods used in the chemical analysis of plants and
agricultural products and in the study of animal nutrition and metab-
olism are given especial attention. Aside from the technical and gen-
eral requirements, numerous electives are offered which enable the
student to obtain a more general training, to select work in the applied
departments of the college, or to obtain the professional work needed for
teaching in the schools of New Hampshire. The curriculum is designed
to provide a thorough foundation for those expecting to prepare them-
selves for teaching and research in colleges and experiment stations.
The department is fortunate in being associated with the experiment
98
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
station and in that connection having charge of the chemical analysis of
feeds and fertilizers for the State department of agriculture. This
furnishes an opportunity for the student to come in contact with the
inspection and research work of the department and to have the benefit
of its equipment.
Students who expect to pursue this curriculum must take Mathematics
5, 6 in the freshman year and Chemistry 47, 48 in the sophomore year.
Additional credits as needed may be elected from the introductory
courses.
Animal Husbandry. — This curriculum is offered to students who wish
a specialized training in the practical and intelligent management,
selection, breeding, and feeding of livestock, including horses, beef and
dual-purpose cattle, sheep, and swine. Special attention is given to
studies which will prepare students for various lines of work, including
the extension service, production and sales work with feed concerns and
packing plants, and the management of estates and general livestock farms.
Many have found this curriculum excellent preparation for advanced
work in veterinary science, civil service, and other specialized lines.
During the junior and senior years each student is advised to elect as
many courses in dairy production as possible, thus obtaining fundamen-
tal information about a closely -related type of enterprise.
Various anatomical models, charts, and lantern slides, and an up-to-
date livestock library are available for student use.
Herd books of the most prominent breeds are used for the purpose of
familiarizing students with the methods of tracing pedigrees and with
the practices of breeders' associations.
Freshmen should complete Animal husbandry 1 the first semester, and
Forestry 2 or Horticulture 2 or 14 the second semester. In the sophomore
year Entomology 1 should be completed in the first semester, together
with agricultural engineering or poultry husbandry. During the second
semester, Agricultural chemistry 4 is expected and Animal husbandry 2.
Geology may be added to the electives already suggested for the fresh-
man year to make possible the completion of two more courses. Dairy
husbandry 2 is not advised in this curriculum.
Botany and Bacteriology. — The curriculum is flexible and so ar-
ranged that students in either the College of Agriculture or the College
of Liberal Arts may take major work in the department. The work
taken may be broadly cultural or the student may specialize with a view
to teaching, or in preparation for graduate study.
Introductory or elective courses in the freshman and sophomore years
may be selected largely subject to the desires of the student. An extra
year of English will be required not later than the junior year.
The department has laboratories and greenhouses equipped for work
in general botany, pathology, physiology and bacteriology and a working
library of 2,000 volumes. Ample facilities are provided also for ad-
vanced work because of the affiliation of the department with the experi-
ment station. The bacteriology laboratory is equipped for work in
99
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
general and applied bacteriology, and opportunity is provided also for
advanced work.
Dairy HusBANDRY.^Students majoring in dairy husbandry are
offered specialized courses in (1) dairy production and (2) dairy products
or dairy manufactures. Dairy production courses include a study of the
dairy breeds and all phases of care, feeding, management, herd analysis,
judging, and selection of dairy cattle. Dairy products courses include a
study of market milk, tests of dairy products, including the use of the
Mojonnier milk tester, dairy bacteriology, and the manufacture of
butter, cheese, and ice cream. The dairy herd on the campus, together
with the daily-operating market milk pasteurizing and ice cream units
in the dairy building, contribute to the practical training of students in
any one of several lines of the dairy industry.
The dairy husbandry laboratories, located in the dairy building and in
the dairy barn, are well equipped for instructional purposes. The equip-
ment includes power churn, power separator, pasteurizers, coolers, ice
cream freezers, bottler, two mechanical refrigeration units and a homo-
genizer. The milk testing and bacteriological laboratories have equip-
ment necessary for milk testing and inspection, and dairy bacteriology.
Freshmen are advised to take Mathematics 5 and 6 if they intend to
major in dairy products or dairy manufactures, which makes a full
schedule for the year. Other students should complete Animal hus-
bandry 1 and Forestry 2 or Horticulture 2 or 14. All dairy students must
complete Animal husbandry 1 as freshmen or sophomores, and Agricul-
tural chemistry 4 as sophomores. Production students in every case
should complete Entomology 1 as sophomores. Other introductory
courses for the two years may be selected from such titles as the follow-
ing: Agricultural engineering 1 and 4, Poultry husbandry 1, and Geology
(7). Dairy husbandry 2 is not intended for dair>' husbandry majors.
Entomology. — The department of entomology offers various courses
and selections of courses for students who wish to major in entomology,
and especially for students who desire to secure training through which
they can later take up one or another aspect of entomology as a pro-
fession.
There are several aspects into which entomology naturally divides
itself. Each of these represents a definite field of specialization, and an
opportunity for professional work according to the training that the
student has had. There is definite advantage in deciding on this major
early in the course of undergraduate training. Equipment for a pro-
fessional position is based on suitable undergraduate work to be followed
by more fully specialized graduate work.
Outlines of specific, suggested courses of study are available to the
student on application at the department office. These outlines refer to
the following specialized fields of entomological training, any one of
which is offered by the department to students majoring in entomology.
General Entomology. — A broad selection of courses which furnish a
suitable background for later specialization in the following: (a) life his-
100
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
tory studies of insects; (b) control of animal parasites; (c) systematic
entomology; and (d) the relation of insects to their environment. Stu-
dents who are interested in entomology in general, but have not yet
determined what special field they might wish to enter, may take this
grouping of courses.
Toxicology. — This specialized field relates particularly to the control
of insects by chemical means. It is a professional field that is rapidly
developing. A student who elects it will be given extensive training in
chemistry as well as in entomology, and in graduate work will be ex-
pected to give considerable attention to insect physiology.
Medical Entomology. — The undergraduate training looking toward
specialization in medical entomology includes courses in zoology and
human physiology, as well as studies in the life histories of important
insects that serve as the transmitting agents for various human diseases
and in the means of control of such diseases through control of the in-
sects that transmit them.
Forest Entomology. — This aspect of entomology is closely related to the
study of forest practices. Students who specialize in this field will take
certain courses in forestry as well as fundamental entomology and
specialized studies in the life histories of insects attacking forest and
shade trees.
Biologic Control. — Certain fundamentals of general entomology are
taken up in the subjects studied by a student majoring in this aspect of
entomology. In addition, special attention is given to the relation of
various natural enemies to insects, including insect parasites and the
eff"ects of fungous and bacterial diseases upon insect life and abundance.
In the freshman year, Mathematics 5 and 6 should be completed. In
the sophomore year. Entomology 1 is required. Other introductory
courses may be selected for additional credits to meet the student's
special interest needs.
Forestry. — The training and instructional work in forestry is in-
tended to meet the needs of three classes of students: (1) those who wish
to secure four years' training in forestry; (2) those who wish to fit them-
selves for positions in the lumber business; and (3) those who desire a
foundation for professional or graduate work in forestry. All students
take the same work during the first two years, and their courses of study
as juniors and seniors depend on their records as freshmen and sopho-
mores.
General Group. — This group includes those students who wish to secure
a sound training in forestry, but who do not care to spend more than four
years in college. Considerable latitude is given in the courses which the
student may elect, but his efforts are directed toward securing a good
general education.
Business Group. — The student who chooses this program of study
receives training in the fundamental principles of forestry, and, in addi-
tion, elects certain courses in the field of business administration.
101
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
Professional Group. — This program of study is designed to fit the
student for advanced work at some other institution, where he will be
able to satisfy the requirements for the degree of master of forestry in
one year. Students who plan to enter the United States forest service,
to become teachers, research workers, or consulting foresters, should
elect this course. The requirements, however, are high for this group,
and only the best students will be encouraged to undertake it.
All freshmen should take forestry 5 and 6. Sophomores will take
Civil engineering 7 and 8, Entomology 1, and Forestry 9 and 10. Agri-
cultural chemistry 2, Agricultural engineering 4, Geology (7) or other
introductory courses may be elected.
Horticulture. — The department of horticulture offers instruction
which, by thorough preparation in fundamentals, fits the student for
intelligent and resourceful production and marketing of fruits and
vegetables. Students of superior ability will find it possible, by sup-
plementing their undergraduate work with postgraduate study, to
prepare for professional positions in teaching, research, or extension
work.
The course in ornamental horticulture and floriculture is designed to
fit the student for work on large private estates, in retail florists' ranges,
or with nursery companies. It does not presume to prepare professional
landscape architects.
Major students in this department must elect a minimum of 25
semester credits of advanced horticultural and related courses. In
addition, because fundamental to all horticultural work, the study of
economics, of plant physiology, and of the control of insects and diseases
is required of all students. Similarly, subject matter in other depart-
ments related to the student's chosen field of endeavor may be required
at the discretion of the head of the department.
Mathematics 5 and 6 is to be preferred in the freshman year for
students who expect to do graduate work. Other students should
elect some of the introductory courses for additional credits. Agri-
cultural engineering and any of the horticultural courses listed are
recommended.
In the sophomore year. Entomology 1 and Agricultural chemistry 2
should be completed. Additional credits will then be obtained from
the introductory courses previously mentioned and from those in the
sophomore list, like Animal husbandry 1, Poultry husbandry 1, in the
first semester; and Dairy husbandry 2, Forestry 2, Geology (7) and
Horticulture 28 in the second semester.
Poultry Husbandry. — The curriculum in poultry husbandry has
been designed to offer students fundamental and special training in
the practical as well as professional fields of poultry. The courses are
also offered to those majoring in other departments.
A brief but comprehensive period of practical work is offered for
those who lack sufiicient experience in the actual care and production
102
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE
of chicks and laying birds. All of the facilities of the university poultry
plant are available for such students.
During the freshman or sophomore year it is necessary that Poultry
husbandry 1 be completed, since it is a prerequisite for many of the
other advanced courses in this department. Agricultural chemistry
4 should be completed. Any of the other introductory courses in the
freshman list are recommended for additional credits except Forestry 5
and 6; and in the sophomore year Agricultural engineering 4, Entomology
1, and Geology (7) may be added to the courses available.
Teacher Preparation. — Under the provisions of the Smith-Hughes
act, the University of New Hampshire has been designated as the
institution in this state for the preparation of teachers of agriculture.
This curriculum gives the young man a broad training in the funda-
mental sciences and in general agriculture. In addition, he receives
professional training in such educational subjects as psychology, prin-
ciples of education and methods of teaching in supervised practice teach-
ing. Students who complete the curriculum and who have had the
requisite amount of practical experience on a farm will be accredited as
teachers.
There is a rapidly increasing demand for teachers of agriculture in
our secondary schools. Local school boards are beginning to appreciate
more fully the value of instruction in agriculture both for the boys who
will engage in agriculture after leaving high school, and as electives to
maintain the interest of those young men who may wish to take at the
university further education in this basic industry. As a result, there
are many good positions open for the young men who wish to make the
teaching of agriculture a profession.
Freshmen may elect any one of the introductory courses for each
semester except Forestry 5 and 6 and Horticulture 26. In the sophomore
year more of these same courses should be completed with the addition of
Geology (7) and possibly Agricultural engineering 4, Animal husbandry
2 and Entomology 1.

UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
C. Special Language and English Requirements
All students are required to pass a reading test in French, German,
Latin, or Spanish before graduation. This test will be based on two
years of secondary school language training or the equivalent. Also
12 semester hours of English,* including freshman English, are required
for graduation.
D. Sophomore Group Requirements
Students are required to complete one year, elected from each of the
following three groups of courses. Not less than one year's work in any
given course shall count toward the fulfillment of this requirement.
Group I:
(a) Mathematics
(6) History
(c) English, French, German, Greek, Latin, Spanish
Group II:
A biological science (Botany 1, 2 or Zoology 1, 2), or a physical
science (Chemistry 1, 2; Geology 1, 2, or Physics 1, 2). Students
electing a biological science during their freshman year must elect
a physical science during their sophomore year, or vice versa.
Group III:
Economics, Education, Political Science, Psychology, Philosophy,
Sociology.
E. Major Requirements
Each student pursuing the General Liberal Arts curriculum in the
College of Liberal Arts shall select at the beginning of the sophomore
year a major department in which he must pass courses to a total of
24 semester credits with a grade of 75 or better. Courses ordinarily
open to freshmen or taken in the freshman year may not be counted
toward the fulfillment of the major requirements. Courses in other
departments closely related to the major courses may be counted with
the consent of the head of the major department.
The following major departments are open to students in the College
of Liberal Arts. Students majoring in departments not in the College
of Liberal Arts must have their schedules approved by the dean of the
College of Liberal Arts.
Botany Languages
Chemistry Mathematics
Economics and Accounting Music
Education Philosophy and Psychology
English Phys. Ed. for Women
Entomology Physics
Geology Political Science
History Sociology
Home Economics Zoology
116
COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS
In addition to the above major departments, students following the
General Liberal Arts curriculum may select a program of study cutting
across departmental or college lines. Students electing such a program,
however, will be held for the requirements of the General Liberal Arts
curriculum. The following are representative of such programs.
(a) Applied Biology. — Although no formal curriculum has been or-
ganized, students interested in applied biology will find it possible to
select a sequence of courses leading to professional work in this field
in cooperation with the state fish and game department. Students
interested in this work should confer with Mr. Earl E. Hoover, assistant
professor of economic zoology and biologist of the state fish and game
department.
(b) Fine and Applied Arts. — A number of fields of study in the fine
and applied arts within the university are open to students in the College
of Liberal Arts who wish to supplement their work in a major depart-
ment. Students desiring to extend their major programs by such
elections should consult with Mr. George R. Thomas of the department
of architecture. The various courses in the fine and applied arts are
described in this catalog under the description of courses in the following
fields :
Architecture (architecture, design, freehand drawing, pottery, water
colors, modeling)
English (play production, survey of art)
Home Economics (history of costume, applied design)
Horticulture (landscape gardening, floral design)
Music (history, appreciation, advanced music)
Physical Education for Women (aesthetic dancing)
Physics (photography)
(c) Pre-DentaL — Since the requirements for entrance into dental school
vary considerably, it is thought advisable not to establish a prescribed
curriculum preparing for dental work. Many dental schools will accept
students at the completion of two or three years of college work. It is
advisable, however, for the student to complete the full four years of col-
lege training before entering dental school in case he is financially able to
do so. In all cases the program of study will be organized to meet the
student's convenience on a two-, three-, or four-year basis and in order to
meet the requirements of the particular dental school for which he is
preparing.
(d) Pre-Law. — Students who plan to enter law school upon graduation
from college are counselled to major in the department of political
science. The bar associations and the law schools of the country do not
prescribe a specific undergraduate curriculum for future lawyers; but it is
generally recognized that the social sciences, history, and English con-
stitute the best general background obtainable for law. There is a
temptation for the unadvised to overload their schedules with college
law courses in the belief that they are receiving in this manner the best
117
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
training the college affords. This is a mistake and the student is urged
to seek faculty advice as soon as he has made up his mind to train for
law. Prompt and proper advice will avoid much difficulty both in col-
lege and later in law school.
(e) Pre- Nursing and Technician Training. — The requirements of
students interested in nursing and technician's training are so varied as
to make it impossible to establish a definite curriculum. In general,
such students will be expected to include in their programs of study
courses in human anatomy and physiology, hygiene and sanitation, cer-
tain courses in chemistry, and bacteriology. As a rule it will be found
necessary for students to take additional work following graduation;
this invariably will be the case of those following the pre-nursing pro-
gram.
(f) Social Service. — Students may prepare for social work as a career
under one of three plans, (a) In every way the most desirable is to take
the full four years at the University of New Hampshire as a cultural
background preparation for a two-year course in a recognized school of
social work, (b) Failing the necessary resources for such extended
graduate training, it is possible to acquire the fundamental social service
principles and techniques by taking a sociology major at the University
of New Hampshire, including the social work courses (61, 76, 97, 98).
(c) To meet the needs of students desiring supervised urban training,
three years may be taken at the University of New Hampshire, and the
fourth at Simmons college or another approved school of social work.
The year's residence requirement will be waived and the degree of bache-
lor of science will be awarded by the University of New Hampshire on
the successful completion of the fourth year in such a school.
Social service includes, among others, the following fields: family case
work, child caring, child placement, settlement and neighborhood house,
institutional work for defectives and dependents, municipal and county
relief work, probation, correctional school and prison service, Y.M.C.A.
and Y.W.C.A. secretarial service, municipal playground direction, child
guidance clinics, community chest work, consular and foreign commercial
service, rural community organization, etc.
(g) Preparation for Teaching. — Students may prepare for teaching
either by completing the requirements of one of the teacher-preparation
curricula of the university (see pp. 130-135) or by completing such
courses as will meet the teacher-certification requirements of the state
in which they desire to teach.*
2. Prescribed Curricula (College of Liberal Arts)
Students may elect a prescribed curriculum only with the consent of
the head of the department in which the curriculum is offered. They
must also satisfy the special freshman and the special language and Eng-
lish requirements (see B and C under General Liberal Arts curriculum)
• See Guidance of Students Preparing to Teach, p. 133.
118
COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS
and must pass at least 24 semester credits of the required courses in the
prescribed curriculum with a grade of 75 or better.
The following prescribed curricula lead to the degree of Bachelor of
Science: General Business; Education-Teacher Preparation; Home
Economics, Teacher Preparation, Institutional Management, Extension
Training; Hotel Administration; Pre-Medical ; Secretarial.
(a) General Business Curriculum. — Students who wish to prepare for
a business career should take the curriculum in general business. This
curriculum has been planned so as to offer the foundation for a broad
cultural education during the first and second years of the curriculum,
and to introduce the student to the business courses in the junior and
senior years. (For details, see p. 123.)
(b) Home Economics Curricula. — The curricula in home economics
are planned to meet the demands for scientific training in homemaking;
also special curricula are outlined for students who wish to enter fields of
professional activity in educational and institutional work. Several
courses are offered as electives for those who do not wish to major in
home economics but who desire to study one or more phases of home-
making. (For details, see pp. 124-125.)
The courses in home economics are based upon the physical, biological,
and social sciences. The technical work in foods, nutrition, and dietetics
is based upon the principles of chemistry and physiology; that in sanita-
tion necessitates a knowledge of chemistry and bacteriology. Home
administration and the care and education of children demand knowledge
of the principles of human nutrition and dietetics, as well as of economics,
psychology and sociology. The study of color and design is fundamental
to the courses in costume design and house decoration.
The home economics curricula offered are as follows:
(1) Teacher Preparation Curriculum. To prepare students to teach
home economics in junior and senior high schools.
(2) Institutional Management Curriculum. To train students for
positions as dietitians and managers in public institutions, such as
college dormitories, hospitals, tearooms, cafeterias, etc.
(3) Extension Training Curriculum. To prepare students to be-
come home demonstration and boys' and girls' club agents.
Students wishing to train for homemaking and child guidance should
take a General Liberal Arts curriculum, majoring in home economics.
(See p. 124.)
(c) Hotel Administration Curriculum. — This four-year curriculum
is designed to train selected young men and women on a semi-vocational
plan to undertake hotel work, with emphasis on the problems of the
resort hotel. Courses already offered in accounting, engineering, home
economics, chemistry, history, languages, economics, and English are
combined with courses in the specialized field of hotel operation to make
a program of study broad in outlook but directed toward a definite goal.
The basic work lies in four main divisions, foods, engineering, ac-
119
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
counting, and specialized hotel work. These courses are required,
leaving about one-third of the curriculum for elective work for which
subjects in allied fields are suggested. In addition to the curriculum
each student will be required to secure a minimum of twenty points of
hotel practice. This will be gained through work in hotels where
supervision will be given, grade of work reported, and the requirement
satisfied at the rate of one point per week of employment. Not over
twelve points may be given for any one type of work performed, nor
more than twenty-four points from any one hotel. (For details, see
pp. 126-127.)
(d) Pre-Medical Curriculum. — This curriculum is offered to meet the
needs of students who are preparing for the medical profession.
It is highly desirable that a student spend four years at this insti-
tution in preparation for a medical training, although some medical
colleges do not require a degree for entrance. The four years of pre-
medical work will, however, give the student a good cultural foundation
for his future medical work. Students who wish to take this curriculum
must obtain the permission of the committee on pre-medical instruction.
Students following the prescribed pre-medical curriculum will be
eligible for entrance into any Class A medical school. However, owing
to the crowded condition of most medical schools, only those students
standing in the upper third of their class during their pre-medical work
may be admitt-ed. Some medical institutions restrict the number of
students admitted from any one pre-medical school. Preference is
always given to those students having the most complete training and
highest standing in their pre-medical work. (For details, see p. 128.)
(e) Secretarial Curriculum. — This curriculum has been prepared to
give a course in secretarial training, based as much as is practical on a
liberal education. Its primary purpose is to train students for secretarial
positions. It combines the technical training of a business secretary
with that of a liberal arts education. (For details, see p. 129.)

University Teacher Preparation Curricula
The University of New Hampshire has accepted the responsibiHty of
preparing teachers for the secondary schools of New Hampshire and

The University Teacher Preparation Curriculum. — The Uni-
versity Teacher Preparation curriculum presented on page 134 of this
catalog includes the basic courses which it is believed are needed in the
preparation of secondary-school teachers. These courses are designed
to give thorough preparation in subject-matter fields in which the in-
dividual desires to teach. The courses in education aim to develop an
appreciative understanding of adolescents and their educational needs,
of our democratic society and its needs which our secondary schools
should endeavor to meet, of the objectives and techniques of secondary-
school teaching, and of the problems of teaching peculiar to the subject-
matter fields in which the student intends to teach. The curriculum
also includes a semester of supervised teaching designed to give prospec-
tive teachers opportunity to teach under supervision but also under as
nearly normal conditions as can be arranged.
It is important to note that the program of this curriculum may be
completed not only by students majoring in the department of educa-
tion, but also by students majoring in any of the departments of the
university offering work the subject-matter of which is offered in secon-
dary schools. General Arts curriculum students satisfactorily complet-
ing this curriculum are released from the sophomore group requirements
of the General Liberal Arts curriculum (see p. 121) and are entitled to the
degree awarded to students majoring in their respective subjects. Stu-
dents satisfactorily completing this curriculum are entitled to a certifi-
cate indicating the fact.
This curriculum is sufficiently flexible to provide the differentiation
necessary to meet the needs of students who may be planning to teach:
(1) English and the foreign languages, (2) English and the social studies,
(3) mathematics and the biological or physical sciences, or (4) the com-
mercial subjects. Students who are planning to teach the commercial
subjects take their teaching major and minors in the field of economics
and commerce.
Freshmen who plan to complete the University Teacher Preparation
curriculum in the teaching of history or social studies should elect
European History (History 3,4).
Since the State of New Hampshire requires each candidate for certifi-
cation to be prepared to teach three subjects which are referred to as
"teaching major" and first and second "teaching minors,"* the Univer-
sity Teacher Preparation curriculum includes the requirement of the
satisfactory completion of 24 semester credits in a teaching major and
* The requirements of the State of New Hampshire are a teaching major of 18 semester
credits, a first teaching minor of 12 semester credits, and a second teaching minor of 6
semester credits. For detailed information concerning teaching majors and minors,
consult the department of education.
130
COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS
of 12 semester credits in each of two teaching minors. This work may
include any courses in the respective subject-matter fields taken in col-
lege. The student before registering for supervised teaching must com-
plete with an average grade of 75 or better, at least 18 semester credits in
the subject-matter field in which he desires to teach under supervision.
Courses in Problems in the Teaching of High School Subjects.—
The courses in problems in the teaching of high school subjects are listed
on pages 177-178. From these the student planning to complete the
University Teacher Preparation curriculum selects his courses in his
teaching major and minor fields. To be eligible for supervised teaching
the student must complete this course in his teaching major with a
grade of at least 75.
Courses in Supervised Teaching.— The work in supervised teaching
is under the direction of the professor and associate professor of educa-
tion serving as director and the associate director of student teaching.
Students teach under the general direction of the members of the univer-
sity faculty conducting the courses in problems of teaching the various
school subjects. Students teach under the immediate direction of select-
ed classroom teachers in high schools approved by the university.
In the supervised teaching courses the student participates in the
conduct of class exercises and in the control of the classroom, at first
chiefly as an observer, but gradually entering into teacher responsibilities
until complete charge of the classroom is secured. Frequent conferences
and discussions.
This work is required in the University Teacher Preparation curric-
ulum, but will be open only to students whose applications are approved
by the head of the department of education and the supervisor of student
teaching in the subject or subjects in which the applicant desires to do
supervised teaching. Applications should be filed in the office of the
department of education in October of the academic year in which the
supervised teaching is to be done. No applications will be considered
unless the applicant has completed with a grade of at least 75 the foUow-
mg courses in Education: 41, 42 (or 121-a, 122-b, and 123-c), 51, 52, (or
131-a, 132-b, and 133-c), and 61 (or 141-a, 142-b) and, with an average
grade of 75 or better, at least 18 semester credits in the subject-matter
field in which he desires to teach under supervision.
The applicant must also complete with a grade of at least 75 a course
in the problems of teaching the subject in which he desires to do super-
vised teaching.
College of Agriculture Teacher Preparation Curriculum.—
Under the provisions of the Smith-Hughes act, the University of New-
Hampshire has been designated as the institution in this state for the
preparation of teachers of agriculture. The College of Agriculture
Teacher Preparation curriculum gives the young man a broad training
in the fundamental sciences and in general agriculture. In addition, he
receives professional training in such educational subjects as psychology,
principles of education, methods of teaching and supervised student
131
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
teaching. Students who complete the curriculum and who have had
the requisite amount of practical experience on a farm will be accredited
as teachers.
For information concerning the teacher-preparation work offered in
the College of Agriculture, see description of the College of Agriculture
Teacher Preparation curriculum on pages 103, 104, 114 of this catalog.
Home Economics Teacher Preparation Curriculum. — To meet
the demand for teachers of home economics in the junior and senior high
schools the university has organized the Home Economics Teacher
Preparation curriculum, details of which may be found on pages 119, 124,
125 of this catalog.
The University Physical Education Teacher Preparation
Curriculum for Men. — For men students who plan to prepare them-
selves for positions of teachers of physical education or of directors of
physical education, the university has organized the University Physical
Education Teacher Preparation curriculum for Men (see p. 135). This
curriculum is a modification of the University Teacher Preparation
curriculum, which will enable men to prepare themselves to teach in two
subject-matter fields as well as in physical education. It is open to men
who have satisfactorily completed the freshman year, and are approved
by the department of physical education as physical education majors.
Freshmen who desire to become physical education majors should elect
Zoology 1, 2 as their freshman science course. The satisfactory com-
pletion of this curriculum will entitle the student, in addition to his
diploma, to a certificate indicating the fact, provided the student has
passed certain standard tests in swimming set forth by the American
Red Cross.
Sophomores who have been approved as physical education majors
should enroll in the section of Zoology 17, 18 for majors in physical edu-
cation as this course is basic to most of the courses in physical education
required in the University Physical Education Teacher Preparation
curriculum.
Junior physical education majors should include in their programs
Physical Education 61, Teaching of Recreational Activities, and either
Physical Education 62, Camp Administration, or Physical Education 64,
Community Recreation.
Senior physical education majors should include in their programs
Physical Education 65, Organization and Administration of Health and
Physical Education in Secondary Schools, and Education-Physical Edu-
cation 93, (93), Directed Teaching of Physical Education on the Campus.
Physical education majors who are candidates for the University
Physical Education Teacher Preparation certificate must satisfactorily
complete the work of three of five of the Problems of Coaching courses
(Physical Education 38, 45, 46, 47, 49) in their junior and senior years.
Where it is possible, student teachers, who are physical education
majors, will be given an opportunity to do supervised teaching in physi-
132
COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS
cal education in the field and will be enrolled for Education-Physical
Education 94.
Guidance of Students Preparing to Teach. — While the university
has organized curricula designed to prepare students for the profession of
teaching, it also recognizes the fact that there are students who are only
interested in meeting state teacher certification requirements. The
department of education endeavors to keep its file of teacher certification
requirements up to date. Students not following any of the University
Teacher- Preparation curricula should, early in their college courses,
consult the department of education concerning the requirements of the
state in which they desire to teach and the most effective ways in which
to meet those requirements.*
• The New Hampshire State board of education grants a license to teach in New
Hampshire secondary schools to candidates whose courses have included twelve semester
hours of college work in education. All candidates must pass the examination set by
the State board in Program of Studies and School Law. They may offer in lieu of ex-
aminations certified college courses in Educational Psychology, Methods of Teaching
(general or special) and Secondary Education or School Management.
The following courses may be considered as work in Education: Educational Sociology,
Educational Psychology, Practice Teaching, Methods of Teaching, History of Education,
School Law, School Management, General Methods Course, Special Methods Course,
and work in Tests and Measurements.

Requirements for Degrees
Baccalaureate Degrees. — Each candidate for a degree must complete
144 semester credits and the courses required in one of the four- year
curricula.
Professional D^gree^.— Mechanical, electrical, and civil engineering
graduates of the University of New Hampshire are eligible to register as
candidates for professional degrees in these three branches of engineering.
These degrees will be granted, after the preparation and subniission of
acceptable theses, to those having not less than four years' satisfactory
professional experience subsequent to the bachelor's degree, in which the
applicants have wholly or in part super^^ised, directed or designed engi-
neering work; or have been in responsible charge of instruction or re-
search in engineering. The acceptability of the theses and professional
experience is determined by an examining committee.
Procedure.— The procedure for candidates for professional engineer-
ing degrees is as follows:
(1) Prepare an outline for a thesis after consultation with the head of
the department concerned. This consultation may be by letter.
(2) When the thesis subject is accepted by the head of the department
in which the degree is to be taken, the candidate will be registered in the
registrar's office. This registration must be completed by October 1st
of the academic year in which the degree is to be conferred.
(3) The first draft of the thesis must be submitted to the professor in
charge not later than March 1, and the completed thesis in its final form
by May 1.
(4) Pass an examination at the university covering the candidate's
professional practice and the engineering principles underlying the thesis.
(5) Pay the commencement fee of $5.00 at the business office not later
than 12 noon of the Saturday next preceding the date when the degree
is conferred.
Thesis. — The thesis must be typewritten upon standard paper, 8J/^
by 11 inches, medium weight, neatly bound in black cloth, and gilt-
136
COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY
lettered on the first cover with title, name of author, degree sought, and
year of graduation. The title page should bear the following statement :
"A thesis submitted to the University of New Hampshire in partial
fulfillment of the requirements for the professional degree of mechanical
engineer (electrical engineer, civil engineer)."
Whenever a thesis is printed in any periodical, it must be designated as
having been accepted as a professional engineering thesis by the Univer-
sity of New Hampshire.
Two bound copies must be filed before commencement day, one with
the librarian and one with the head of the department in which the
major work is done.
Curricula
The College of Technology offers the following four- year curricula :
Architecture Curriculum.— This curriculum is planned to prepare
its graduates for immediate usefulness in the profession of architecture
and, while it is highly technical, it does not overlook the need of the pro-
fessional man for a broad cultural background.
. ^^^. ^^^^ three years aim to provide fundamental instruction and
discipline in the art, science, theory, and history of architecture, supple-
mented with such basic courses of study in related departments of the
university as shall give a proper background for independent work in
architectural design and construction.
^ The fourth year is devoted chiefly to thesis work in the design of a
civic or residential development in harmony with New England tradi-
tions, followed by complete working drawings and specifications covering
all branches of the work and supplemented with studies of office pro-
cedure including contract forms, accounting and bookkeeping, the aim
being to prepare the student for immediate service in an architect's
office or in some branch of the building construction industry.
Chemistry Curriculum.— This curriculum is intended to fit the
student for the career of a professional chemist, and to give a good
foundation for original and independent chemical research.
Instruction is imparted by lectures, recitations and a large amount of
carefully supervised laboratory work. The laboratory study is largely
individual, and the work of each student is conducted with reference not
only to the particular subject he may have in view, but also to the ac-
quirement of a broad knowledge of chemical science. The student is
given a training in either German.or French to enable him to read with
ease the chemical literature; a grounding in mathematics, necessary for
advanced theoretical chemistry or chemical engineering; a somewhat
limited amount of special work in both mechanical and electrical engi-
neering and a thorough undergraduate training in theoretical and applied
chemistry. He is encouraged to develop the power of solving chemical
problems by independent thought through the aid of the reference li-
brary and chemical periodicals.
Civil Engineering Curriculum. — This curriculum is designed to
137
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
give the student theoretical and practical training in the principles upon
which the practice of civil engineering is based, and to allow him the op-
portunity to apply these principles to problems of professional practice
in the classroom, in the design room and in the field.
Civil engineering, the oldest of the engineering professions, still covers
a broad field of activity, including topographical, structural, transporta-
tion, hydraulic, and sanitary engineering. This curriculum places about
equal emphasis upon each of these various branches and allows the
student some opportunity to develop his special interests through the
thesis requirement.
Electrical Engineering Curriculum. — The electrical engineering
curriculum is intended to meet the demands of young men fitting thern-
selves for professional engineering in connection with the various appli-
cations of electricity.
By means of lectures, recitations and laboratory work, the courses of
the curriculum are brought to the attention of the student in such a
manner as not only to emphasize the present needs of the practitioner
and engineer, but to give him the principles needed to understand the
constantly increasing number of new problems that require solution.
Mechanical Engineering Curriculum. — The mechanical engineer-
ing curriculum is intended to train young men for positions of responsi-
bility in the field of the mechanical industries, and is designed to fit them
socially for their proper places in the world. The courses in the curric-
ulum are scientific, including mathematics, physics and chemistry, and
technical, including drawing, shop work, thermodynamics, hydraulics,
machine design, electrical engineering, power engineering. Two years
of economics are available as alternates.
Instruction is given by means of recitations, lectures and laboratory
work supplemented by illustrated lectures and assigned reading.
Throughout the curriculum the theoretical work is supplemented by
actual practice in mechanical operation and scientific research, by train-
ing in the use of tools for working wood and metals, and by experimental
tests and demonstrations in the mechanical, electrical, chemical and
physical laboratories.
Engineering Experiment Station. — The Engineering Experiment
station was established for the purpose of making available the advisory
assistance of heads of departments and experienced men in the faculty
of the College of Technology, and the use of laboratory facilities of these
departments for service and assistance of New Hampshire industries and
the people of New Hampshire in solving their technical problems.
Alumni Representation. — An advisory committee of alurnni of
the College of Technology, composed of men in direct contact with in-
dustry and practical professional affairs, serves to keep the faculty in
touch with developments in the several fields which attract our graduates.
Members of this committee also serve as consultants when important

COURSES primarily FOR TEACHERS IN SERVICE
The following courses are primarily for teachers in service. Those
who are interested should consult with the department of education as to
the time they are scheduled.
84. Secondary Education IN THE Junior High School. The course
is designed to trace the evolution of the junior high school and to con-
trast it with earlier forms of school organization. Among the topics
discussed are the particular features and functions of the school; the
educational objectives and philosophy underlying its program; the at-
tempt to humanize adolescent education; the school's function in a
democracy; the junior high school as a community centre; articulation
between the junior high school and the elementary and senior high
schools. Considerable attention is given to the program of studies and
the content of various courses of study in both small and large communi-
ties with the purpose of adapting this school unit to the problems of the
present. Consideration will be given in this course to extra-classroom
activities and their articulation with classroom procedures. Lectures,
assigned readings, problems and discussions.
Open to teachers in service and to juniors, seniors, and
graduate students. One 2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
Geology 71. Human Geography. The surface of the earth as the
home of man is studied. The physical geographic characteristics of
180
EDUCATION
plain, plateau, and mountain regions are related to the use man has made
of these divisions of the continents and the varying effect they have on
human activities because of latitude, altitude, weather, structure, and
other geographic factors. Examples of the inter-action of man with
various geographic environments are taken from various parts of the
world. Among plains regions studied are the central plain of North
America, the great Russian plain, and the Amazonian lowlands; as ex-
amples of plateaus, the Transcaucasia plateaus, the Appalachian plateau,
and the Tibetan plateau ; and as examples of mountains and their effect
on their inhabitants, the Rockies, the Alps, and the Himalayas. Wall
maps, topographic and geologic maps, atlases, lantern slides, and a well
selected library will be available to the student for reference purposes.
Open to teachers of geography and to commercial and so-
cial studies teachers who have occasion to stress the influ-
ence of geographical factors upon social phenomena. One
2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
Geology 72. Geography of North America. A study of the re-
gional geography of North America. The physiography of the continent
and its natural divisions are considered in relation to climate, structure,
and political divisions. Most of the time is given to the study of the
United States, but Canada and Mexico are also studied. The geography
of New England is taken up in considerable detail. Maps, references,
and lantern slides will be used to supplement the class discussion.
Open to teachers of geography and to commercial and
social studies teachers who have occasion to stress the in-
fluence of geographical factors upon social phenomena.
One 2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
History-Education (hist-ed) 91. Problems in the Teaching of
High School History. This course includes a study of the purposes
and objectives of teaching high school history, of the selection and or-
ganization of teaching material, and of teaching and testing techniques
which may be advantageously used in teaching high school history.
The course will include experiments in studying and teaching recent
American history.
One 2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
History-Education (hist-ed) 92. Practicum in the Teaching of
History in High Schools. The pjirpose is to aid teachers of world
history, ancient, early European, and modern history. The difficulties
and values of such courses will be appraised. How can subject matter
be selected and organized, considering the pupil's age and attainment
level, to clarify factors and forces and processes of mankind in the past
that make the present world more understandable? Consideration will
be given to objectives, curriculum variations, methods of presentation,
reading and activity programs, testing, the teaching of current events,
and such other problems as are raised by members of the class. The
vision, the challenge, and the ideals of social studies instruction will be
181
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
balanced by the reality of developing teachable units for classroom use.
Individual guidance will be given members of the class as they work on
their own special problems.
One 2-hour rec, ; 2 cr.
Political Science 59. The Government of the State of New
Hampshire. Since the General Court passed its recent legislation re-
quiring the instruction of children in elementary and secondary schools
in the subject of the constitution of the state of New Hampshire, many
teachers and students have found greater need for information about
their state government. This course is designed to meet that desire.
The constitutions of the state and incidentally of the federal government
will be used as the bases for instruction. The object will be to give the
student electing the course a rounded out picture of the state govern-
ment and the problems which confront it. The subject matter can be
divided into the organization, functions, and problems of the govern-
ment of New Hampshire.
One 2-hour rec. ; 2 or.
Political Science 60. The Contemporary American Political
Scene. This course is specifically designed for teachers of civics and for
those who wish to keep abreast of current political developments in the
United States. The adoption of new and the abandonment of old gov-
ernmental machinery, programs and policies make a review of our gov-
ernment and its manifold problems desirable. The decisions of the
federal supreme court, legislation since 1932, the growing demand for
better personnel in government, contemplated government reforms,
trade agreements, the new position of labor, and other similar topics will
be discussed. Students electing this course will be required to subscribe
to a large metropolitan newspaper.
One 2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
Social Studies-Education (ss-ed) 91. Problems in the Teaching
OF High School Social Studies. This course includes a study of the
purposes and objectives of teaching high school social studies, of the
selection and organization of teaching material, and of teaching and
testing techniques which may be advantageously used in teaching high
school social studies.
One 2-hour rec. ; 2 cr.
Social Studies-Education (ss-ed) 92. Practicum in the Teach-
ing OF Social Studies other than History. This is especially de-
signed not only for those social studies teachers who are interested in the
fields of economics, sociology, and government, but also for administra-
tors and supervisors. It will include a study of curriculum problems in
senior and junior high schools, and the major trends and developments in
the social studies field. In this connection will be considered major
reports such as those of the commission on the social studies of the Ameri-
182
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
can Historical association, the 1936 yearbook of the department of super-
intendence, and the recent report on history of the college entrance
examination board. Books and periodicals of value to social studies teach-
ers will be noted. In the subject-matter fields under special considera-
tion actual units will be developed, and general plans for the courses
discussed. The approach will be that of the pupils' experience and in-
terest. A background study will be made of objectives, teaching tech-
nics, activity and reading programs, and testing. Use of periodicals,
newspapers, and pamphlets for the study of public affairs is an essential
element of this course. The teaching of controversial topics will be
given careful consideration. The social studies workroom enables the
members of the class to get acquainted with a wide range of textbooks
and other materials. Members of the class will be encouraged to work
on their individual problems and to develop their own courses with
guidance and advice.

GEOLOGY
George W. White, Associate Professor; T. Ralph Meyers, Assistant
Professor; Donald H. Chapman, Assistant Professor; Willard B.
Phelps, Assistant.
The geology department, located on the second floor of Conant hall,
offers courses in the principles of geology, structural and dynamic geol-
ogy, physiography, mineralogy, economic geology, and paleontology,
geography and meteorology.
The courses in geology are designed to give the student a general
insight into the materials, structure, and history of the earth upon which
he lives. They are intended for the student with broad general interests,
who wishes some insight into earth science, as well as for the student who
is looking forward to professional or graduate work in geology. The
courses are non-technical, in the sense that they do not fit a student to
enter the career of professional geology without further training. The
196
GEOLOGY
lectures in these courses are supplemented by laboratory exercises and
field trips.
Two major programs are suggested. The first is for the student who
is seeking a broad cultural training, and should include principles of
geology, chemistry, and any four courses in geology for major work.
The second, or pre-professional, program includes, besides geology
courses, certain other courses which the student will find desirable as a
prerequisite for graduate or professional work. Courses which should
be included in the pre-professional program are principles of geology,
physiographic and structural geology, mineralogy, economic geology,
paleontology, field problems, inorganic chemistry, physics, surveying,
engineering drawing (M.E. 1,2), mathematics, and German.
The working equipment of the department includes numerous topo-
graphic and geologic maps, and a fairly complete collection of minerals,
rocks and fossils. Microscopes are available for problem work in miner-
alogy, petrology, and paleontology. The departmental museum display
a wide variety of geological specimens and contains the Hitchcock collec-
tion, the Clough collection, and a portion of the Exeter Historical Society
collection.
Few areas present such a wide variety of geological phenomena as
the country in and about Durham. Features such as mountain and
continental glaciation, marine erosion and deposition, vulcanism, orog-
eny, and metamorphism, are well shown.
1,2. Principles OF Geology. Thestudy of the earth and its history.
A consideration of the forces that have operated to produce land forms
and structures, and a discussion of the materials of the earth's crust.
These facts will then be applied to the interpretation of past geologic
events, together with their effect on the development of life forms.
Laboratory study of various land forms of the United States by means
of maps; of common minerals and rocks of the earth's crust; and of the
more common fossils, will closely parallel the class work. Occasional
field trips are taken to nearby points of geologic interest. Mr. White,
Mr. Meyers, Mr. Chapman, and Mr. Phelps.
Prereq.: 1 prerequisite for 2. Freshman and sophomore
course. 3 lee. or rec. ; 1 lab.; 4 cr.
3. Geography of the World. A course designed for the student
interested in the essential geographic facts regarding the earth. The
earth as a planet and the processes which are at work modifying the
appearance of its surface are first briefly discussed. The continents are
next considered one by one, with emphasis placed on their physical
aspects. Finally, the climates of the world are briefly treated. Mr.
Chapman.

MUSIC
Robert W. Manton, Associate Professor and Director; Lewis C. Swain,
Instructor and Bandmaster.
The aim of the instruction in the department of music is twofold:
first, to teach music scientificall}^ and technically, with a view to training
musicians who shall be competent to teach and compose; second, to treat
music historically and aesthetically as an element of liberal culture.
Closely related departments are languages (French and German), and
English (English literature and appreciation of art).
It is recommended that students who intend to elect music as a major
consult the head of the department as early in the freshman year as possi-
ble relative to the best disposition of the sequence of courses in the major.
All students majoring in music are required to take the following subjects
before graduation: Music 15, 16; 17; 19, 20; 21, 22; 23, 24; 25, 26.
For students who intend to take only one or two courses in music,
for the cultivation of musical taste and general knowledge. Music 15,
16, 17, or 19, and 20 are recommended as best adapted to this end.
Students interested in some particular musical organization, such as
glee club or orchestra, are permitted to elect the work desired.

work, tone production, diction and above all sound musi-
cianship, will be studied and concerts prepared separately
and in combination to enhance and vitalize the university
life.
15, 16. The History of Music. This course will attempt to cover
the period from modern Greece up to the twentieth century. The in-
struction is given in the form of lectures, and stress will be placed upon an
intensive study of the actual systems, spirit and content of the music of
the period rather than a brief resume of biography and critical evalua-
tions. The four divisions of study are as follows: (1) From plain song
through Palestrina, Vittoria, etc., and the secular music of the English
madrigalists; (2) the seventeenth century and Johann Sebastian Bach;
(3) the classicists to Schumann; (4) Schumann to Debussy. Mr. Man-
ton.
Elective. 2 lee. or rec. ; 2 cr.
17. Twentieth Century Music. This course is the logical continu-
ation of Music 15 and 16, and emphasizes the significant trends in mod-
ern music since 1900. The works of such contemporary composers as
Debussy, Sibelius, Stravinsky, Ravel, Hindemith, Schoenberg, Delius,
Vaughan-Williams, Hoist, Walton, Griffes, together with many others
will be considered, listened to, and the values, gains, losses and shifts of
emphasis discussed and every attempt made to adjust the listener's ear
to the new values. Mr. Manton.
Elective. 2 lee. or rec. ; 2 cr.
19, 20. The Appreciation of Music. This course begins with a
study of the elements of music such as: melody, harmony, homophonic
and polyphonic types, constructive formulae, and the musical forms em-
ployed in composition; for upon the recognition of these elements de-
pends the approach to intelligent listening. Comprehensive illustra-
229
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
tions of the great musical literature with special attention to twentieth
century music will be played and jointly analyzed by the instructor and
students from the point of view of the listener. This course is open and
especially recommended to all students who wish to become familiar with
the art of music in its many phases, and gain a wider acquaintance with
the past and present masterpieces of musical art. Mr. Manton.
Prereq.: 19 prerequisite for 20. 3 lee. or rec; 2 cr.
21, 22. Harmony, The Grammar of Music. The fundamental
principles of the craft of music are embodied in the study of harmony.
This course treats of the different chords in their natural and combined
relations: triads, seventh and ninth chords with their inversions and
resolutions; cadences, chromatically altered chords, augmented chords,
suspensions; embellishing tones, modulation, melody writing, and pedal
point. This subject normally covers three semesters' work.
The work consists of exercises on figured basses and the harmonization
of given melodies and dictation. This course is especially recommended
to freshmen but may be elected by others. The ability to play some in-
strument will facilitate an understanding of the course. Mr. Manton.
Prereq.: 21 prerequisite for 22. 2 lee. or rec; 2 cr.
23, 24. Advanced Harmony and Strict Counterpoint. This
course is intended to supplement Music 21 and 22, and to lay stress on
the many significant innovations found in modern harmony; to make a
study of modal harmony and its relation to the appreciation of fifteenth
and sixteenth century music; and to study the five orders of strict two-
part counterpoint. Mr. Manton.
Prereq.: Music 22. 23 prerequisite for 24. 2 lee. or rec;
2 cr.
25, 26. Counterpoint and Elementary Composition. Counter-
point is the combining of several melodic voices, a horizontal conception
of writing, and is essential to all finished craftsmanship. The work will
consist of the writing of three and four-part counterpoint, double count-
erpoint, choral figuration and free imitation.
The work in composition will include the detailed training relative to
sentence formation, figure treatment, two-part and three-part forms,
inventions, the variation forms, and the various rondo forms up to the
sonata form. Mr. Manton.
Prereq. : Music 22 and 24. 25 prerequisite for 26. 3 lee
or rec; 2 cr.
27, 28. Instrumentation. This course is designed to ground the
student in the idiomatic writing and technique necessary to score effec-
tively for the modern symphonic orchestra. It necessitates a good grasp
of the fundamental principles of harmony and counterpoint. All the
orchestral instruments will be considered individually as to their tech-
230
MUSIC
nique, range, tonal qualities, possibilities and limitations; then in sepa-
rate choirs, and finally in combination as a unit.
Orchestral scores will be studied in detail; score reading and reduction
emphasized; and original work in this idiom encouraged. Mr. Manton.
Prereq.: Music 22 and 24. 3 lee; 3 cr.
29, 30. The History and Development of Choral Music. This
is a special course consisting of lectures, reading and reports. Only a
limited number of qualified students will be admitted.
The course is designed to trace a straight line through such study as:
plain song, folk song, the music of the troubadours, the beginnings of
harmony and counterpoint, the works of the Netherland masters and of
Palestrina and his contemporaries; the German choral works of the
Reformation, the important Elizabethan group of madrigalists in Eng-
land; the choral works of Bach, Handel, etc. It ends with a considera-
tion of the choral literature of the nineteenth century and of the modern
English, French, and Russian choral composers, such as Elgar, Delius,
Hoist, Vaughan-Williams, Lambert, Walton, Honegger, etc.
Students will meet three times a week, the third meeting being de-
voted to class singing and study of the works considered in the lectures.
Mr. Manton.
3 lee. or rec; 2 cr. (Given in alternate years; not offered
in 1938-39.)
31, 32. Public School Music and Its Allied Fields. The purpose
of this course is three-fold in nature. First, it attempts to lay down basic
method material and principles of approach for the purpose of cultivat-
ing a taste for the best music; it is also shown how these methods and
repertoire may be applied through the junior and senior high school
periods. Second, it seeks to cultivate, through the principles of apprecia-
tion, a growth in perception, understanding, and general responsiveness
to the art of music, approaching it through formal design and emotional
content. Third, it endeavors to give the individual student training and
practical experience in the art of conducting, organization and the pro-
duction of artistic results in glee clubs and orchestras.
Prereq.: 31 prerequisite for 32. 2 lee. or rec; 2 cr.
33, 34. Canon and Fugue. Canon and fugue are the most advanced
forms of polyphonic composition and require a thorough grounding in
harmony and counterpoint. The object of this course is to perfect the
contrapuntal technique of the student, enabling him to study the larger
and freer forms of composition. The work will be based on the fugal
works of Bach and Franck, and consists of practice in writing, the more
practical types of canon, and of the analysis and composition of fugues.

The University is favorably situated geographically for the study of
zoology. Within a few minutes' walk of the laboratory, the Oyster
river meets the tide water from Great bay. This furnishes a gradua-
tion of salt, brackish and fresh water with an abundance of their char-
acteristic fauna. On the other hand, there are numerous bodies of
fresh water, with typical fresh water forms.
The department of zoology is prepared to offer courses in systematic
zoology, physiology, sanitation, philosophical zoology, and anatomical
zoology.
The equipment for the work in systematic zoology'- consists of a
well-lighted laboratory, provided with tables, charts, dissecting and
compound microscopes. All of the latest books and periodicals on
systematic zoology are at the student's disposal.
The proximity to both salt and fresh water renders the work in
advanced systematic zoology unusually attractive. In addition to the
251
UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
regular collecting equipment, nets, aquaria, etc., advanced students
also have the use of rowboats and a gasoline launch.
In the work in physiology, hygiene and sanitation, the department
is provided with an unusually fine collection of injected preparations
of the human body, and with numerous charts.
For work in evolution and experimental zoology the department has
a very complete library. Studies in ecology in Great bay and vicinity
are encouraged, for which purpose the students have the use of camera
equipment. In addition to the study of evolution under natural con-
ditions the department also furnishes aquaria for laboratory study and
experiments.
The work in anatomical zoology is greatly facilitated by an abundance
of fresh material which may be collected as needed. For the study
of human and comparative anatomy a full set of skeletons and pre-
served material is provided. Students interested in histology have access
to a private collection of some two thousand microscope slides.
Students majoring in zoology will ordinarily find it desirable to
elect courses in botany and chemistry. If the objective is the teaching
of biology, a combined major in botany and zoology will be allowed.
Such students should complete the freshman courses in these subjects
as early in their curricula as possible.
Students planning to fi)l pre-medical requirements should consult the
pre-medical curriculum. Students interested in dentistry may elect a
modified pre-medical curriculum.
1, 2. Principles of Zoology. An elementary study of the princi-
ples of life, its development, structural basis and physiological activity.

THE TWO-YEAR CURRICULUM IN
AGRICULTURE
M. Gale Eastman, Dean
The two-year curriculum in agriculture, established in 1895, affords
a splendid opportunity for the farm boys of the state to acquaint them-
selves with the fundamental principles and with the latest and most
approved practices of agriculture. This curriculum is arranged espe-
cially for the young men who wish to make a business of dairying, live-
stock raising, poultry, horticulture or general farming, but who do not
have the time, money or preparation to take a regular four-year cur-
riculum.
All required courses in the two-year curriculum are separate and dis-
tinct from those of the four-year curricula, but some electives are al-
lowed from four-year courses. The work includes training in botany,
chemistry, English, and zoology as fundamental to the study and inter-
pretation of information dealing with the successful production of plants
and animals on the farm. To such a background of science and culture
through the two years of work are added courses in the field of agricul-
ture which will give as thorough and practical training as the limited
time will permit. These agricultural courses include practice both in
the laboratory and in the field. The facilities of the university's dairy
barn, livestock barn, poultry plant, horticultural farm, and forest, as
well as the milk pasteurizing, ice cream, and apple storage and packing
plants on campus, are always available for class work with students.
Military science is not required in the two-year curriculum but any
student desiring to take the course may elect it with the four-year stu-
dents.
A student who meets the entrance requirements of the university
may receive credit towards graduation from a four-year curriculum in
the College of Agriculture for work completed with a grade of 75 or
better in certain agricultural courses of the two-year curriculum.
Entrance Requirements. — ^The two-year curriculum is open to
both young men and j-oung women. The only entrance requirements
are a common school education involving a reasonable knowledge of
reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, English grammar, geography,
and United States history. The curriculum is best adapted to students
from 17 to 21 years of age. Older students frequently take the curric-
ulum, but younger ones are not encouraged to enter.
Tuition and Fees. — The tuition for students who are residents of
New Hampshire is $75 per year. For out-of-state students the tuition
is $175 per year. One-half of the tuition is payable at the beginning of
each semester.

curriculum each student must present satisfactory evidence of having
had practical experience in farm work, either through having worked
on a farm for at least two years after he was 12 years of age, or through
having worked on a farm for at least four months after he was 15 years
of age.
Opening, Closing. — The curriculum for this year will open Mon-
day, September 19, 1938, and will close Monday, June 12, 1939.
Two-year students are not required to attend Freshman week, which he-
gins September 13, 1938, hut they may do so if they wish.
Certificate of Graduation. — No degree is given at the end of this
period of study, but a "certificate of graduation" is presented upon
the completion of the prescribed curriculum of 64 credits or its equiva-
lent.
